A Qulters’ Dream

A wonderful small business that I use for all my sewing ideas and supplies. Abby is such a talented tutor I have learned so much since I have used this site. You can’t go wrong by using this business, don’t hesitate you won’t regret it, I certainly haven’t.

Avid Craft is an excellent seller

Avid Crafts is not just a small business it is more like a group of friends. From first time buyers to long term customers, everyone is welcome. The facebook page encourages interaction and is a non judgement environment. The items sold are first class and customer service is exemplary.

Advent calendar not worth the money…

Advent calendar not worth the money paid I'm afraid products made in China mostly very disappointed!! Was looking forward to it immensely as was all falling apart opened all at once. Not good!!! To stress the sewing notions do have made in China on the packets. Cotton so called reels are not excellent quality. I did think long and hard about placing a review and decided to as didn't want other people getting an advent calendar that was not of a quality expected. I have reviewed Avid crafts previously with a good review. But the advent calendar was of inferior quality. Hopefully no one else gets disappointed in the future. When something is not up to scratch it makes you wonder why you bothered ordering. Especially when money is tight. My affiliation with Avid crafts has ended as I've been kicked out of the fat quarter club and supporters group for making an honest review. I even showed the product to other people to see if it was just me. But everyone said put in a review. I'm sorry but that's how it is.

As I said in my email to you directly, we are really disappointed you don’t like the calendar. So much hard work went into them and regardless of your opinion, they are worth the money. The fabric alone is worth over £30 and you got an additional 12 notions with the calendar costing you £42.99.
Reviews like this are so damaging to small businesses and the exclamation marks are so unnecessary.

Following your edited reply:
It’s so hard as a small business because we can’t be so aggressive in our response as you’ve been in your review because we have an excellent reputation to uphold. You’ve shown your true colours in your review.
We are so pleased to have removed you from our groups, this edited review screams of bitterness.
