Welcome to Hawkins Hobbies
Bespoke kits for some of the most beautiful and magical cross stitch designs from Mirabilia, Lavender & Lace, Nora Corbett and Bella Filipina. Cute character kits featuring Winnie the Pooh and friends, Boofle, Lickle Ted and Somebunny. Plus a wide selection of Mill Hill cross stitch/beading kits for Christmas, Halloween and everything in between!
**KITTING UP SERVICE**
Do you have something you want to stitch but the materials list is scary? Perhaps you don't know where to get the listed materials? Are you put off by the fact that you will have to get things from several different places and pay several postal costs – including some from overseas? We can make up a kit for you from almost any available chart from various designers, or if you have the chart, we can do the rest – even if the design is now out of print (obviously, we can't supply the chart!). So, email us, hawkinshobbies@gmail.com with a list of what you need and we will price everything up for you!
**This includes Chatelaine Designs – DMC, specialist threads, beads and crystals**
**EVENTS**
During
the year, we are away at various stitching retreats and shows.
Due to this, we close the site down to ensure that we don't sell something twice! You can still contact us by email, hawkinshobbies@gmail.com about anything you are interested in purchasing. During this time, there will be a notice on the front of the site, letting you know when it will be back up and we also post a notice on our Facebook page.
For some of the retreats we attend, you can come to see us (with the permission of the retreat organiser). So if you want to come along and buy from the shop or make an appointment for a framing consultation/pick up, then let us know closer to the time.
Currently, the site will be closed on the following dates:
June 25-30 (June NOBAM Retreat, Northampton)
September 18-22 (Ladybird Retreat, Crewe); 26-27 (Essex Retreat, Stansted);
October 7-14 (Knitting and Stitching Show, London); October 29 - November 2 (October NOBAM Retreat, Northampton)
November 17-26 (Knitting and Stitching Show, Harrogate)
**UNITED STATES AND CANADA**
Unfortunately, due to changes in shipping and insurance regulations since the UK left the EU, we are no longer able to ship any orders to the United States or Canada. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
**EU AND NORTHERN IRELAND**
Unfortunately, due to the GPSR (General Product Safety Rules) legislation that came in during
December 2024, we are currently unable to accept orders from the EU and
Northern Ireland. Apologies to our customers in the EU and Northern Ireland. Should there be any changes to the legislation, we will be able to take orders from you once again.
**SUPPLIES UPDATE**
We still have delays in receiving some Mill Hill kits, beads and embellishment packs due to a manufacturing problem with Magnifica beads. The site is 'live stock' so everything showing as 'in stock' will ship asap but realise that if you want to place a custom/bespoke
order with us, it may take six weeks or more to ship this out.
We will, of course, keep you updated.
If there is anything that you are interested in, that is currently out of stock, it may just be that we don't have an item to complete the order. Please contact us, hawkinshobbies@gmail.com, as you could have the option to buy the kit now and we will send you
the missing items when they arrive or you could try to source a missing element yourself. We try to turn things around as quickly as possible
when we receive them and will ship your order as soon as possible.
As a small business, we genuinely appreciate your
continued support, understanding and patience.
Keep safe – and carry on stitching!
