Boxes are shipped every other month.
The current box will be available to purchase for two months and then, once the cart closes, we'll ship it out.
For example, the October box is shipped in the first week of October.
Therefore the cart is open for two months prior, from 1st August, closing on 30th September.
Any orders / subscriptions placed during this time frame will receive the October box.
To receive the December box, you must order/subscribe between 1st October & 30th November.
And so on!
Yes!
All of our kits come with our comprehensive Stitch Guide that has step by step instructions and photos for the most common stitches.
In addition, we have a number of video tutorials.
And in case you need further support, we are more than happy to be contacted via email (hello@stitchsmiths.co.uk) or social media (insta: @thestitchsmiths) where we'll do all we can to help you.
If you love embroidery, then what's better than a carefully designed kit dropping through your letterbox with all you need to get started on a new project straight away?
And if you're a beginner, then trust us, you will soon love emboridery as much as we do! Our boxes are a great way to try a new skill, as they're complete kits with everything you need to get started, including comprehensive instructions.
Because our boxes ship every other month rather than monthly, they're a really afforable way to treat yourself. Plus you'll have a little more time to complete each project!
Who doesn't love receiving luxury treats in the post and indulging in some me-time?
The design for our current box will be visible on our website and social media.
Throughout the two months that the current box is available we'll often share hints and sneak peeks as to what our next design will be, particularly helpful if you are umming and aahing as to whether to subscribe or not! But rest assured, all our designs will be beautiful whilst incorporating elements of nature. If our next design is really not for you, don't forget you can always skip a box during your subscription.
Yes, if you are on a bi-monthly plan and need a short break then you can skip a box via 'subscription settings' in your account portal.
You can select which date you want deliveries to resume on.
If you have bought a 6 month or 12 month bundle, then you will receive all of the next boxes in order.
No. When you buy a 6 month (3 box) or 12 month (6 box) 'subscription' it is a one-off payment and it will not renew. You will not receive any more boxes after your initial 3 or 6 boxes.
If you want to keep receiving them, then just purchase another half year or annual plan, or switch to our rolling bi-monthly option. We'd love to keep sending you our boxes!
Please note - the cart may show you the next billing date (in 6 or 12 months from now), but you will not be charged on this date.
Any questions, just get in touch
Stitch Smiths has been created by us, Jess & Megan. We're sisters who love trying our hand at anything creative.
We both adore embroidery and have completed many projects between us. We love it because it's accessible, super relaxing and there's just such a wide variety of designs you can create.
We want to share our love with you and we are particularly excited to be able to design our very own patterns that other people can enjoy and bring to life with their own personality.
We hope you end up loving embroidery as much as we do!
