Yesterday was a big day for me. My dad and I hired a truck, drove to the other side of Sydney, loaded 3.5 tonnes of books (that’s 253 cartons) into the truck, drove it back and with the help of some fabulous friends, unloaded them all. That’s a lot of books!
THE BOOKS ARE HERE! 😀


Early-Style Hardanger is now available to purchase and ready to send, and all my other books are now back in stock as well. YAY!

Thanks to my fabulous friends for your assistance with unloading. “Many hands make light work” is certainly true.
In a master-stroke of “perfect” timing, I will be out of town this week. But I’ll be having a nice time with my daughter doing family/education things. However, it does mean that my posting capacity will be more limited. I will take some stock of Early-Style Hardanger with me, and some of the Londonderry linen thread, and some of the Edinburgh linen.
Most other things I won’t be able to fill orders for, until I get back the following week. It also means you won’t get a printed receipt, but you will get an emailed one. Phone orders will be delayed until next week. I apologise for the inconvenience this causes.
All pre-ordered copies are either on their way, or will be on Monday. Some were even posted yesterday, though I could hardly move! Thanks so much to all who pre-ordered, for your support of me and my book writing. I’ve been so encouraged by the response.
To order your copy of any of my books, please go here! We also have a special page for more information about my newest book Early-Style Hardanger.
For those who are further afield, shipments are also on their way to all my distributors around the world. They’re just a bit further away than Australia is, so they take a little longer. Please be patient a bit longer. 🙂 And do remember, I am always happy to post internationally.
White Threads is the blog of Yvette Stanton, the author, designer, publisher behind Vetty Creations' quality needlework books and embroidery products.

That’s a LOT of books. Just think of the number of very happy stitchers that van load equals and be glad you only had to lift the books out of the van, not the people! (I’m about to order my copy right now – I won’t mind a wait.) Enjoy your week off – you’ve earned it.
Thanks Sue!
There were only 20 cartons of my mother’s book, and that was quite enough!
Ooh, wonderful! and congratulations! I hope my copy is among the ones you’ve posted. Selfish of me, because I have a long queue of projects to work through before I can try anything from the book – but I WANT THE EYE CANDY.
Elaine, yours went on Friday! 🙂
It’s arrived, and it’s beautiful! Many, many thanks.
Yay Elaine! That was quick! So glad you love it. 🙂
