TIGGY RAWLING

You will be sad to learn that my darling Tiggy Rawling passed away peacefully on January 4th 2024.

I have had a few enquiries about purchasing Tiggy's Threads.

I know it was her wish to carry on supplying them to like-minded stitchers as long as there are a few left.

As you can imagine her studio contains boxes of dyed threads and cloth, shisha, buttons, and indian embelishments.

The completed packs shown below have nearly run out, although most of the colours are still available.

If you wish to top up your boxes, I will do my best to select the colours you request.

The reduced price will be £2.00 per spool including postage. Although the yardage may vary on each spool they are all roughly 50yds.

We are hoping to hold a retrospective exhibition of Tiggy's work sometime later this year at Walford Mill, Wimborne.

Any members of the West Country Embroiders or the Quilters Guild, feel free to contact me with any questions.
