Just had an owner’s course for my new Bernina. Janet was so helpful with lots of good advice. Small number of attendees meant lots of individual attention when needed. And as always the Barnyarns crew... See more

Trade in special!

I checked about trading in my B750 QE sewing machine ended up ordering a super special edition red B735 PE - which was specially ordered for me from Bernina. It arrived before Christmas (delivery was originally Jan/Feb 2025). Love the machine. Thank you Callum.

I have rung Barnyerns on several occasions for help or advice they were very helpful and friendly and made me feel a wanted customer. The turnaround with orders is fast. When I want supplies they are the first company that I turn to.

Great mystery box!

I took a chance on one of the mystery boxes and I'm very glad I did! You always worry when you go for mystery boxes that the items will be stock that the company can't shift. My box arrived, quickly, full of useful supplies, some everyday items and some items that I can find a project for but everything looked new and fresh. Communication was friendly and efficient. I would recommend Barnyarns to other customers.

A great value mystery box.

I ordered a mystery box of goods from this company as I have bought from them before and found them to be trustworthy with their description of goods and quality I was sure that I would not be disappointed with whatever was in the box. Ordering was easy and the parcel arrived on time and in excellent condition. The contents of the box were numerous and very useful, good value for the price paid.

Excellent Mystery Box

Received Mystery Quilt Box as part of their promotion, and was very pleased with the contents. All the items were useful and good quality, and the box was very good value for money at £50 for £100 worth of goods.
Great company, good products, easy to deal with and helpful.

Sometimes you just need a surprise…

Sometimes you just need a surprise parcel of sewing goodies to cheer you up - so I couldn't resist the mystery box offer and I was not disappointed. A great selection of cottons that were new to me and I will enjoy trying out plus really useful sewing essentials and an off the wall treat. Barnyarns are always friendly and efficient.

Treat box

I was making an order anyway so included a mystery box as a treat. I was pleased with the quality and value of the contents. However the items I ordered and needed to complete a quilt have not yet arrived. Shame that priority was given to stock clearance and not regular orders.

Great selection, prompt shipping

I bought 3 mystery boxes and was thoroughly delighted. I had bought threads from barnyarns before and my experiences have always been very positive. Prompt reliable shipping and a great selection.

Great range of quality items, friendly staff, prompt delivery

Been a customer of Barnyarns for a long time. I look out for them at shows where possible and enjoy seeing the products 'for real'. I have always had great service from Barnyarns and on occasion when something has been out of stock, I have been notified and given an anticipated delivery date by the friendly staff at Customer services, the goods usually arrive well before the quoted date. Goods are well packaged and excellent quality. I have just had 2 mystery boxes, they were both fantastic value and great fun to receive. Thank you Barnyarns, please keep up the great work.

Mystery box treat

I bought a mystery box as a treat. Good selection of products, some I’ve not tried before and some I already own but they’ll all be useful. Ordering was easy and delivery was swift.

Fantastic Retailer!

I have been a customer of BarnYarns for many years, both online and at quilt shows. Their knowledge and vast array of items is mind-blowing, and service is second to none. The educational emails they send are very informative, and John's jokes are bad, but always make me smile!

Recently bought 2 mystery boxes from them, and very pleased with the contents. Keep up the good work; just wished I lived nearer to your physical shop!
