Song of the Seasons Cross Stitch-a-Long

Yes! Many of our customers are first-time stitchers. Our kits include simple, step-by-step instructions, and you’ll have access to our friendly community if you ever need extra support. Look out for the products with a beginner badge!

We also have a specific "Beginner Kits" category. These designs typically fit in a 6 or 7inch hoop and use fewer colours, making them perfect for your first project.

There are multiple ways that you can get involved in our Caterpillar Community, both online and in person!

Yes, we ship worldwide from our UK HQ! Shipping rates will be calculated automatically at checkout once you input your shipping address.

Delivery times vary depending on the destination country, but we always recommend opting for tracked shipping so that you can monitor the progress of your order.

US import charge is calculated and added to your order as part of your purchase. But customers based elsewhere are responsible for any customs or import taxes that may apply in their country. We do not have any control over delays due to items being held by customs in other countries.

It depends on the size of the design and how much time you spend stitching, but most kits take anywhere from a few evenings to a couple of weeks. We always try to balance detail with enjoyment.
