Embroidery Starter Kit

Stitch your first heirloom in one afternoon.

Built around an absolute-beginner pace. The kit walks you from threading a needle to finishing the back of a hoop, with five small motifs (botanical and geometric, all original or public-domain) sized for an evening session. Hoops are smooth-grain beech, fabric is mid-weight unbleached cotton-linen blend, threads are six-strand mercerised cotton. The PDF tutorial includes nine core stitches with photographic step-by-steps.
