Shipping

Can't Find a Shipping Rate for Your Country?

If your country isn't listed at checkout or no shipping rate is available on our website, let us know and we will do our best to check if we can ship to your country.

International Shipping

We ship worldwide at a flat rate, and qualifying orders ship for free. International orders are sent by FedEx International Priority and usually arrive within 3–6 business days of dispatch.

Check your shipping cost before checkout: add items to your cart, then enter your country in the shipping calculator in the cart to see the exact rate for your order.

Delays can occasionally happen because of customs clearance, bad weather or public holidays.

Some remote or regional areas in Australia and Canada may incur an extra delivery charge. You can check your rates on our shipping calculator. As FedEx open more hubs in these 2 countries, your rates will also change. 

Shipping to Singapore

We offer special shipping rates within Singapore:

  • Orders under S$50: S$7.95
  • Orders of S$50 and above: FREE Shipping

Local Shipping (Malaysia)

Shipping is FREE to all addresses in East and West Malaysia.

How long will delivery take?

Most international orders arrive within 3–6 business days of dispatch. Orders to Singapore usually arrive within 2–3 business days.

Delivery can occasionally take a few extra days because of:

  • Customs clearance
  • Severe weather
  • Public holidays
  • Remote or hard-to-reach delivery locations

Will I receive tracking information?

Yes. As soon as your order ships, we'll email you the tracking details. You can also find them in your order history when you log in to your account.

Are customs duties and import taxes included?

For orders to the United States, we ship DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) — import duties and taxes are included in your checkout total, so there are no charges on delivery.

For all other destinations, import duties, taxes, VAT, and any other customs charges are the responsibility of the recipient. These vary by country and may be collected by the courier or customs authority upon delivery. We recommend checking your country's import rules before ordering if you are unsure.

Can you deliver to PO Boxes?

We're unable to deliver to PO Box addresses. Please enter a residential or business address at checkout.

If you need delivery to a PO Box, FedEx charges about US$15 to hand the parcel over to a local third-party carrier. Add a note at checkout confirming you agree to this extra charge, and we'll send you an invoice after your order is received.

What happens if my package is lost?

Please contact us with your order number. We'll work with the courier to locate your parcel and resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

Products

Complimentary Gift Wrapping

Gift wrapping is free. Tick the Gift-wrap my order box on the product page, then add your personal message in the notes in your cart.

Do you use AI?

No. Every design is created by hand, without AI.

We come from a family of artists and writers and have published books of our own. We source artwork the traditional way: researching collections, reaching out to artists, and using WikiArt as our main reference to find the best paintings to turn into cross stitch.

How do I download my Pattern?

Once your payment is complete, you can download your PDF in three ways:

  1. On the checkout page: if you paid by card or PayPal, a download button appears on your order confirmation page.
  2. By email: we'll send a download link to your email address.
  3. From your account: your downloads are saved in your order history, so you can download them again at any time (see the image below).

If you pay by bank transfer (Singapore and Malaysia banks only), your download will be available once we've received your payment.

What skill level are your designs suitable for?

We have designs for every level, from beginner to experienced stitcher. On any collection page, you can filter by Skill level to find the right project for you.

Can you print the chart and mail it to me?

Yes! We know not everyone has easy access to a printer.

Send us a message with the product's SKU number and we'll create a listing with a printed chart option for you. Shipping fees apply to printed chart orders.

What fabric count should I choose?

14-count fabric is ideal for beginners and gives a larger finished piece. 18-count fabric gives a smaller, more detailed finish.

Are your patterns easy to read?

Yes. Our charts use clear symbols and a tidy layout, and we keep unnecessary confetti stitches to a minimum.

What is confetti in cross stitch?

Confetti stitches are single stitches of different colours scattered across a design. We reduce excessive confetti wherever possible to make stitching more enjoyable.

Do your kits include enough thread?

Yes. Every kit includes 30–60% more thread than the design needs.

The quantities are based on stitching with 2 strands, so please separate your thread into 2-strand lengths before you start. Stitching with 3 strands or the full thread may leave you short.

If you prefer to stitch with 3 strands, contact us and we'll arrange extra thread for you.

Is the design printed on the fabric?

No. All our designs are counted cross stitch, not stamped. You follow the printed chart and stitch onto blank Aida fabric.

Can beginners complete your kits?

Yes. Many of our customers start with our beginner-friendly and miniature designs, then move on to larger projects.

What's included in a cross stitch kit?

Each kit includes premium Aida fabric, embroidery thread, a printed colour chart, tapestry needles and instructions.

While stocks last, you'll also receive free extras: shimmering Kreinik thread, bobbins and a needle threader.

How do I use the shiny Kreinik thread?

As a fun optional bonus, we include approximately 3-6 metres of shimmering Kreinik thread with your kit. The colour is carefully selected to complement one of the colours in your design.

Once you've completed the regular stitching, you can add the Kreinik thread over selected stitches to create beautiful sparkling effects. Use it to highlight details, add accents, outline elements, or bring extra dimension to your finished piece.

There are no strict rules, this is where your creativity can shine. Make it as subtle or as sparkly as you like!

Limited Warranty

Yes. We know some stitchers like to start their kits a little later, so here's what we cover.

  1. Missing items (within 30 days of receiving your order): if anything is missing from your kit because of our error, we'll send it to you, or offer a partial refund if shipping to your location is too costly.
  2. Not enough thread (within 12 months of receiving your order): if you run out, we'll send more thread, or offer a partial refund if shipping isn't practical.

Lifetime Warranty

And for something a little longer.

  1. Lost printed chart: get the PDF version of the chart at 50% off (for kit purchases)
  2. Lost PDF file: we'll replace it for free at any time with proof of purchase (your name, order number or the email used to order).

Please note that the replacement PDF may differ slightly from the original, as we update our designs from time to time. This warranty doesn't apply if a design has been discontinued and is no longer in our records.

Orders & Returns

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept all major credit and debit cards, as well as Shop Pay, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, GrabPay, iDEAL/Wero, Bizum, MB Way, Satispay and Bancontact.

Customers in Singapore and Malaysia can also pay by bank transfer.

How do I track my order?

When your order ships, you'll receive a shipping confirmation email with:

  • Your tracking number
  • The courier delivering your parcel
  • A direct link to track your shipment

Click the tracking link in the email to see the latest delivery updates.

From Your Account

  1. Log in to your account on our website.
  2. Select the order you want to track.
  3. The latest delivery updates are shown within the order (see the image below).

No Tracking Number Yet?

Tracking details are sent once your order has been packed. Each kit is prepared by hand, so please allow 2–3 days after ordering. You'll receive your tracking email as soon as your parcel is on its way.

Can I change or cancel my order?

Usually, yes, as long as your order hasn't been packed and shipped yet. Please contact us as soon as possible with your order number and we'll do our best to help.

I entered the wrong shipping address. What should I do?

Please contact us right away. If your order hasn't shipped yet, we can update the address for you.

Can I combine multiple orders?

If none of your orders have shipped yet, we’ll automatically combine them and refund the extra shipping you paid. You don’t need to do anything. We’ll spot the duplicate right away, unless you ordered twice with different delivery addresses.

Orders sent to different addresses can’t be merged, so those are shipped separately.

Where is my order confirmation email?

Please check your spam or junk folder first. If it isn't there, contact us and we'll resend it.

Return & Exchanges

International Returns

You have 30 days from the day your order arrives to request a return. We don’t ask you to justify it. If we ask why, it’s only so we can improve. Not every design is for everyone, and if what you received isn’t right for you, you’re welcome to send it back.

Store Credit & Cashbacks

Store Credit Validity

You can earn Store Credit through cashback or vouchers. It is issued in your local currency, so the amount may look slightly different from the original value because of exchange rates.

Store Credit can only be used for purchases on our store and is valid for 3 years from the date it is issued.

How to Use Your Store Credit

  1. Log in to your account before you check out.
  2. Go to checkout as normal. Don't use the express payment buttons at the top (Shop Pay, PayPal, Google Pay).
  3. On the payment step, select your Store Credit to apply it (see the image below).

Important: Your Cart Currency Must Match Your Store Credit Currency

Store Credit only appears when your checkout is in the same currency as your credit. For example, credit in SGD can only be used on an order paid in SGD. Your checkout currency is set by your delivery country, so make sure you are shipping to the country your credit was issued for.

If Your Store Credit Doesn't Appear

  1. Check that your cart currency matches your Store Credit currency.
  2. Log out of your account, log back in, and try again.
  3. If it still doesn't show, place your order and add a note asking us to apply your Store Credit. Tell us whether to use all of it or a specific amount. You can also email us right after placing your order. We'll refund that amount to your original payment method and deduct it from your Store Credit balance.

How to Check Your Balance

  1. Log in to your account.
  2. Click Profile.
  3. Your Store Credit balance is shown in the top-right corner.
  4. Click the amount to see your available balance and credit history.
