This cactus cross stitch kit is a really easy project, provided with all of the materials you'll need - the only tools you will need are a pair of scissors to snip the threads once you're done!
An easy cross stitch kit, perfect for beginners.
Even if it's your very first kit, we want to make it really easy for you to stitch your own little cactus & plant pot you can be proud of! The 2" hoop size means that the blank aida fabric will fill quickly with stitches and you'll make noticable progress with each cross stitch you make. The kit took Kirsty around an hour to stitch, so it's an ideal starter kit to give you an introduction into the world of cross stitching. If you're a more experienced stitcher, this is a fun little project that you could take on your commute, stitch on holiday or complete whilst waiting for your kids to finish their sports lessons!
We absolutely love the pink colour of these mini hoops, as they make a nice, modern change to the more traditional , wooden hoops we use in the rest of our kits. The hard plastic hoop is finished with the usual Elbesee gold screw at the top and contains grooves to hold the fabric nice and tight whilst you're stitching. It's also great for displaying your finished project in at the end.
As these cactus cross stitch kits are quick and easy to make, I have included a piece of ribbon for you to use to hang your project and I came up with lots of ideas of what you could do with them once you've finished a design... You could attach them to your bag or backpack, use them as a keyring, hang them on a wall or cupboard handle or use them as gift tags. They would also make great gifts, either to give as kits to your friends who cross stitch, or to stitch yourself then give the finished hoop to someone special.
Inside your kit, you will receive:
- 1x Needle (made by John James)

Please note, scissors are not provided with the kit - you will need to provide your own pair.
