Hi, does anyone know where I can buy the cross-stitch stuff (aida fabric, DMC threads,...) in the metropolitan area? With reasonable prices and a wide range of products pls

HobbyPoint and Sinelli in Helsinki might have something, and Menita Outlet in Espoo. If you need a wide variety and reasonable prices, you probably have to find some webshop in the UK or Germany.

@ StellaS: I have heard about ordering them from UK, that may be the best way to get the stuff with low price but still I want to see and touch them before purchasing. And it is great time visiting this kind of shops, I suppose. Thanks for your suggestion

. It was so long time since I opened this topic and I was disappointed that nobody here doing cross stitching. Thanks for your answer

I cross stitch, but I don't live in Helsinki and am not familiar with its craft supply shops. If this helps at all, someone asked a similar question here before: https://www.finlandforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=69349

I usually get my thread by the lot from eBay UK and other stuff like aida fabric/needles/frames/specialized skeins etc. from sewandso.co.uk.

@ Misu: Thanks Misu. I have checked that topic before but the info there was a bit out of date, so I decided to open a new one just for some fresh news of recent shops in Helsinki. Thanks for your web suggestion
