I hope you enjoy this slow stitching kit, and that it enables you to slow down and really relax and enjoy your stitching. No previous skill or creative talent is required for this project. The rules are there are no rules. I encourage you to embrace the frayed edge, and welcome textural and rustic stitching, and more importantly to go with the flow.
Suitable for all levels of stitchers including beginners, as instructions, a stitch guide, and video stitch tutorials are all included.
This kit and its contents are not suitable for children, as it includes an embroidery needle and small parts. the vintage items will vary in condition, but are perfectly usable.
