This was one of the first kits I completed and I loved making every stitch and as a beginner I found it perfect as a first embroidery project to complete
The kit includes a 10” square piece of hand-printed antique linen together with the threads and instructions required to complete the pattern. The finished heart is approx 3.5” at both of its widest points.
There a series of youtube tutorials to share the basic stitches and there are short films to accompany each kit on youtube which are so helpful if you are a beginner
Kits from The Sitchery are packed in beautiful, sturdy, textured card folders that close with a hand-dyed silk ribbon. This means that they make lovely gifts as well as providing a home for your work in between stitching sessions.
You will need to have a simple sewing kit to include small, sharp, embroidery scissors, an assorted packet of embroidery/crewel needles and an embroidery hoop.
