We're delighted to invite you to our lovely shop in person or via our website.

All our needlework stock is now available for you to buy through our online catalogue, as well as most of our knitting and crochet patterns and yarns.  Our patchwork fabrics will become available over the next few weeks as time permits ... we've well over 1000 fabrics to show you!  In the meantime we do have quilting and knitting haberdashery and accessories available on the site.

If you can't see what you're after, do ring or email with any other requirements - or better still, come to visit us in Hamsey Green near Croydon in Surrey.  We're right next to The Good Companions Pub (top of Tithepit Shaw Lane) and there's plenty of free parking on the service roads and in the car park opposite.

Our opening hours are Mon-Sat 9 am - 5 pm (except Wednesdays 9 am - 12.30 pm).

You can call us on 020 8657 5050 or email us at info@thread-bear.co.uk

SPRING 2008 CLASSES NOW LISTED! 

ABOUT OUR CATALOGUE  and STOCK AVAILABILITY

We're an independent local 'high street' shop with a love of all needlecrafts, and we aim to keep a large and diverse selection of items in stock for our customers, but we cannot hold every item from every supplier in stock all the time - we are just not big or wealthy enough! 

However, we felt that on our website you would like to see the great wealth of designs that are available from many sources, in the UK and from overseas, so we have endeavoured to put all available items on our catalogue pages.  If you then place an order and the item(s) are not in stock, we will contact you to give you an estimated delivery time, with the option to cancel your order if you'd rather not wait.  (The vast majority of items are available to us within 2-10 days).

We thank you for your custom!
