Vintage Christmas Wreath Embroidery Kit

Isn’t there more that makes you think of a vintage Christmas than bright baubles, multi-coloured lights and pots of poinsettias. No more tricky than the other kits but you do need to work carefully with satin stitch; this is something that needs a bit of quiet time, plenty of light and a fine crewel needle. I am hoping that a few quiet hours with some stitching might be just the ticket in the run up to Christmas, or even between Christmas and New Year!

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 piece is approximately 110mm square and would work beautifully as a little Christmas cushion, wall hanging or shelf sitter. It could also adorn the front of a gift bag or make a special Christmas keepsake for someone you love. But also framed it could be the focal point of a Christmas display with a candle and perhaps some micro fairy lights.

This Kit from The Stitchery is packed in a beautiful, sturdy, textured card folder 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.

To complete the kit you will also need a packet of crewel or embroidery needles, a pair of small, sharp, needlework scissors and a 20cm embroidery hoop (these can all be found in our shop)
