Hawthorn Handmade Herbarium Botanical Embroidery Kit for Beginners

Discover the relaxing art of hand embroidery with the Hawthorn Handmade Herbarium Botanical Embroidery Kit for Beginners. Featuring a beautiful botanical design inspired by the natural world, this complete kit is a wonderful way to learn embroidery, practise new stitches and create a piece of hoop art to enjoy when you're finished.

The design is pre-printed onto 100% cotton fabric, so there's no need to transfer the pattern before you start. Simply place the fabric into the included wooden embroidery hoop and follow the detailed stitch and colour guide as you work your way through the botanical design.

Everything you need to get started is included, from DMC stranded cotton embroidery thread and a 7" wooden embroidery hoop to an embroidery needle and illustrated instruction booklet. The step-by-step guidance makes the kit suitable for complete beginners, while the range of stitches also makes it an enjoyable project for anyone looking to develop their embroidery skills.
