Our butterfly embroidery kit combines colour and texture to create a unique design for you to stitch, through the use of seed beads and satin stitch, using stranded cotton and crewel wool.
Doing embroidery is a great form of relaxation - what better gift to make her smile?
This butterfly embroidery kit focuses mainly on the use of satin stitch, which is one of the most important and most used stitches in embroidery. It is a really easy stitch to create, but is very effective, especially when created using different threads. Each kit contains both DMC stranded cotton, which has a silky satin shine, and Appletons crewel wool, which has a textured matte finish. Our kits also focus on the use of seed beads, which add an extra 3D dimension to the embroidery, in addition to a little hint of sparkle. All of the other bits and bobs you need to complete the kit are also included: needles, thorough instructions, linen fabric with the printed butterfly pattern to follow and of course, the embroidery hoop.
It can be difficult to put time aside to spend resting and creating something unique. When we created our butterfly embroidery kit, we wanted to offer a relaxing gift for yourself or someone special, which we have carefully designed and hand packed for you here in our UK studio. We believe that doing embroidery can really help you to look after your mental health and spend time focusing on self-care and relaxation, through its calming nature.
Everything needed to stitch the butterfly embroidery kit is included, and packed beautifully in tissue paper, branded stickers and a cardboard box, making it perfect for gifting. The contents of the kit include:
