COVID 19 Updates

On December 3rd, our stores will be operating under the new NZ COVID-19 Protection Framework. Our locations in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin have undertaken the required risk assessments and are able to operate under the guidelines for general retail. 

What does this mean for customers visiting our stores?

Customers visiting our stores will be required to scan in using our QR code and sanitize hands upon entry, and wear a face mask for the duration of the visit. We expect to have capacity limits in place for each of our locations to ensure staff and customers can maintain safe distancing. Card payments are preferred at this time. Under the guidelines for general retail, we do not require proof of vaccination from customers. 

Please get in touch with your nearest store should you have any questions. We look forward to seeing you in store for holiday season shopping!

New Zealand sewists, our four retail stores are currently closed during lockdown and we are not able to offer mail order or contactless pick up in store at this time. Our online store remains open, and we invite you to browse our recent arrivals!

All orders placed through our Online Store are processed and dispatched from our Auckland based HQ which is separate to our store locations. If you have placed an order with us online prior to August 17th, and you have not yet received a shipping confirmation email, your order will be still in our processing queue. Processing is currently on pause for all orders, including orders placed during lockdown, and will resume once it is safe for our team to do so, when the alert level lifts here in Auckland.

A huge thank you from our teams for your continued support and patience!
