European Countries Important Please Read

European Customers Statement:
I feel, as a responsible supplier, it is my duty to inform all my EU costumers of the new charges you MAY face when ordering my bobbins from the UK after Brexit happened on 31st December 2020.

Your country WILL now impose VAT, Handling fees and possible import duties on you. These rates seem to differ from county to country. It is your responsibility to check what your own country may charge. 

I am still very happy to accept your order if you are prepared to pay these charges, if they are incurred. 

I cannot accept returns in this situation, as all bobbins are made to order.

Hopefully the UK and EU politicians can resolve this soon.

My business is small and therefore does no charge VAT on the prices you see and pay for on the website.


Delivery Times
Please Note
Although I keep many bobbins in stock. The majority of orders will need to made up up for you. This takes time. I do keep a lot of bobbins in stock, but..... With 70 different bobbin designs which can contain, 9 different bobbins choices, 3 different material choices and up to 28 different painted designs in anyone product. The chances of having in stock what you want could be slim! There is only myself and my artists to make up all my products, all (except the continental styles of bobbins) are made up and painted by hand.
If you need the bobbins for a certain date then always call me first  on 01373 812023 or use the contact form THIS WILL AVOID ANY DISAPPOINTMENT. Thank you Chris
