The John Loudon fabric I ordered…

The John Loudon fabric I ordered arrived quickly and is exactly as I had imagined from the website. I have made a scarf which I am very pleased with. I have also ordered more fabric to make a 'mother of the groom' summer outfit, but couldn't decide which design to go for, so have ordered two different ones. Am looking forward to receiving them in the next few days - then I'll make the decision😊

Baby Bear Buttons

I purchased some buttons for a baby cardigan for my daughter. Unfortunately upon arrival, one of the buttons was slightly damaged. I emailed with picture of button and received a very prompt reply and a replacement. Very happy with overall experience

Absolutely terrible

Absolutely terrible, I am waiting on an order I made 2 weeks ago, then suddenly I received a £5 refund with no explanation at all, no email from them why I received this or where my order is, I have emailed them twice and still had no response, they have left me no choice now but to retrieve my payment, I will never buy from this company again, shocking terrible customer service.

Reply from Oh Sew Crafty

We’re sorry to hear you were unhappy with your experience.

The partial refund you received was issued because one of the items in your order became unavailable while your order was being processed. We apologise if the communication around this was not clear enough.

As a busy small business handling orders across our shop and multiple online platforms, response times can occasionally be longer than we would like, but we do aim to reply to all customer enquiries as quickly as possible.

We understand your frustration regarding the delay and lack of communication and appreciate your comments, as this is something we are continually working to improve.

Just wow!!!!!

Was looking for quilting cottons and I'm not disappointed. Lovely selection of fabrics. Carefully packed and delivered within a few days of ordering, bear in mind this included the weekend.
One of the fabrics was out of stock was notified and after choosing a refund this was processed immediately. Beautiful fabrics and price for half metre very reasonable as well.
I narrowed down my choice as far as possible. The dilemma I now have is which fabrics from the bundle do I use!!!!!
I found the website whilist searching for quilting fabrics.
Very pleased with the whole experience with this purchase.

Good quality fabric

I have ordered from Oh Sew Crafty several times.
I like the range of fabrics, especially the option of buying some lovely print fabrics in polyester cotton, for sewing projects. The quality is excellent and I highly recommend.
Oh Sew Crafty has excellent customer service. I cannot fault the service from this family run company.

All your craft needs under one roof

I have been into the shop many times and the selection of fabric, yarn and haberdashery is fantastic. The staff are exceptional, they will help you with anything and have always been successful. Whenever I go it's always busy but the staff are always keen to serve you. There is no where else that gives you the all round experience that Oh Sew Crafty does, it always my first port of call. Now that they do collections when you order online it's even better, and lighter on my purse because I always end up buying something else that I did plan on purchasing! I give it 10/10

The product was fine but

The product was fine. Packaging was crap, this was wooden knitting needles and quite expensive ones but they were sent only in their thin box, no bubble wrap, no protection, no instructions to not bend. They have decided not to publish my review on their site, so will AVOID in future, they're not trustworthy

We’re pleased to hear you were happy with the knitting needles themselves, though we’re sorry you were disappointed with the packaging.

The needles are supplied in the manufacturer’s original packaging, which is designed for retail and transit use. We do our best to package orders appropriately while also keeping postage costs reasonable and reducing unnecessary excess packaging.

We would also like to clarify that reviews are not manually removed simply because they are negative. Reviews may not appear immediately for a variety of moderation or platform-related reasons.

We appreciate your comments and will take your feedback regarding packaging into consideration.

Very poor quality and not what I expected...

The yellow fleece blanket appears to have been cut by hand with regular scissors. The shape is uneven, the edges are not straight, and the fabric is badly frayed and poorly finished. This is very poor quality and not what I expected. I would not recommend this company.

Thank you for your feedback.

All of our fabrics are cut by hand from full rolls, and we intentionally cut slightly longer than the ordered measurement to allow for any minor variances and to ensure customers are not short on length. Because fleece is a soft, knitted fabric, the raw edge can sometimes look slightly uneven before it is squared off during a project, but this does not affect the usable size or quality of the fabric itself.

We certainly do not send out frayed or poor-quality fabric, and we take pride in the materials we supply. If there is a specific issue beyond the raw cut edge, we would have welcomed the opportunity to review photos and look into it properly.

We’re sorry to hear you were disappointed on this occasion, but we do stand by the quality of our fabric and our cutting process.

Five stars are not enough

Five stars are not enough!

I was given a Gift Card, but unfortunately due to sad and difficult family circumstances, I put it aside. When life settled a little, I fetched it out and found it had expired one week earlier.

Neil from Oh Sew Crafty VERY generously agreed to extend the date by a couple of weeks. His emails were so thoughtful, kind and friendly. I now have a bag of wonderful squishy yarn waiting to be knitted.

Thank you Neil and the rest of the team, your store is amazing, packed full of great fabrics and yarns. I will be back!

Awful customer service.

Awful customer service.

I ordered online and was sent the wrong item. I emailed, called 12 times over the course of 3 hours without answer, and tried their WhatsApp all without reply. I then realised I could go to their store (1hr 30min round trip) to sort it out myself. When I got there, my issue was sorted immediately, but it’s so frustrating that their error became my issue and costed me my time to fix.

Then I finally got a reply from their WhatsApp to be told that the number I contacted wasn’t a customer service number, even though it’s the number listed on their website!!!

I don’t think I’ll be ordering from them again.
