This popular design kit now comes with not one, but two of the large 49cm pure linen fabric panel.
This kit is suitable for beginners and advanced stitchers alike.
Containing pure wool threads of British wool. The light weight wool is an absolute joy to stitch with as it's squidgy enough to hide imperfections, but it still has a form to it that creates very neat stitches with minimum effort. It is the perfect introduction to crewel embroidery.
Suitable for all levels of stitchers including complete beginners, as full instructions, a stitch guide, and video stitch tutorials are all included.
Included in the kit:
- Two Pure Linen Fabric Panels, heavyweight, 49 x 49cm.
- Pure British Wool threads, cut into ready to stitch lengths and stored on a macrame ring.
- John James Chenille embroidery needle.
- Full colour printed instruction booklet with a stitch guide.
- Printed to size A4 embroidery pattern template.
- Carbon tracing paper for tracing your design.
- Video stitch tutorials at my website.
- Free delivery in the UK.

If you are creating a cushion then all you will need is the stuffing, and a pair of scissors to cut the thread.
An embroidery hoop is available for use with this kit. I always recommend the use of an embroidery hoop, and 5" and 6" hoops are available on this website in the 'Supplies' section.
Not suitable for children as it includes an embroidery needle and small parts.
The fabric and wool are washable by cool hand wash. If you are concerned about fabric shrinkage, hand wash the linen before embroidering, and first run a line of stitch around all edges before washing.
