I am absolutely thrilled with this box. It provides a comprehensive kit of everything I need. The darning disk is a thing of beauty to me, but then I love a gadget.
I was very worried about the state it would arrive in, because delivery services are not reknowned for being careful with other people's parcels. This was extremely well packaged. In fact, I don't think I have ever seen such care taken to ensure that everyting arrives in one piece. I was hugely relieved, grateful and impressed by the care taken. Thank you, Grace!

The paper treat box really is a great treat. I love the Italian paper scissors and the gorgeous Japanese mechanical pencil. The handmade wooden handle awl is of great quality. I have always wanted the metal ruler for cutting and protecting your fingers. Handmade twine and quality papers and tapes The box is great value for money. I also got a gift of Beyond Measure 10 Year Tote and pencil. Thank you so much for those. I highly recommend this box full of goodies.
Tweed Bundle - Custom Made For You
I’ve bought all issues bar one of Tauko (sportswear wasn’t my bag) and can find at least two patterns I’d like to try from each edition. From Tauko No17, I like Sukaria and Dia and the piece on pin tucks by Raphaëlle Bonamy was extremely helpful so shall try this technique. I’m always delighted with the service from Beyond Measure and am very happy to order from this brilliant business in the North.
Daruma Yokota Sashiko Thread Fine colours are beautiful and the thread lovely to work with. Good price and delivery. Really pleased with my purchase.
