15.06.2016 LGBT Pride Month

June 2016 is a month of LGBT Pride.
We have gone a long way when it comes to tolerance and acceptance.
Still there is a much longer way to go.
I'm a proud supporter of the community.

11.05.2016 I now accept PayPal!

I finally accept payment through PayPal! Invoice is still an option, but pre-payment is required.
Exception are existing customers with a good payment record. They can still pay after receiving the goods.

The discount system has also been changed. It now starts at 2% on your second order. From there it increases with 1% until it reach a maximum of 15%.
This is to compensate for the transaction fee of PayPal, which equals to about 4-5% of total value.

11.09.2014 Free fabric printing in the rest of September

I'm considering offering fabric printing. So I need people to test the quality of the print. I now offer all my customers free fabric printing in the rest of September.

01.09.2014 New webshop!

After 3 years I finally took the time to create a proper webshop.
The previous one look more like a list than a shop
The new shop is easier to navigate and order. Additionally it's also been designed with tablets and smartphones in mind.

02.08.2014 Home again

I'm finally home after nearly 7 weeks away.
Orders will be packed and sent on Monday.

02.06.2014 Tie pattern extended by two weeks

You'll get the tie pattern until I travel on the 14th June

19.05.2014 Free tie pattern in May!

I've created my own tie pattern and a tutorial for it. You can download the pattern from me for free, but you need a printer at least 60cm wide. Since the majority of the people don't have access to such printer I've decided to print it for you and attach the pattern to every order for free in May!

03.01.2014 Home again

I'm now home after 7 weeks away.
Orders received while I was gone will be packed and sent on Monday 6th January.
Shortly I also plan to restock from both Gütermann and Coats.

26.09.2013 Increase in shipping cost

The Czech Post increased their postal fee on 1st August 2013.
At first I decided not to change my shipping cost, but quickly realize I'll lose money in the long run. Unfortunately I also had to increase the shipping cost. This change is effective from today.

18.08.2013 New supplier of sewing threads

After carefully considerations I've decided to start offering Coats Epic in addition to Gütermann Mara. Main reason is because Mara wasn't superior on every aspect as I first thought. In order to keep offering the best threads available I had to offer both brands. Difference between Mara and Epic are on this page.
