A colourful landscape filled with wildflowers, mountains, and sunshine - how lovely!
This Mountain Meadow embroidery kit includes stitches such asPicot Stitch, Braided Chain Stitch, Colonial Knots, and Turkey Work.
This kit is more challenging than my beginner designs: it's ideal for anyone looking to expand their current embroidery skills, or who are fairly confident with a needle. As with all of my kits, there's photographic instructions for each new stitch, and lots of tips and advice to guide you along the way.
Each kit includes:
✨ Quality Materials: organic and ethically produced fabric, vibrant DMC threads, a wooden embroidery hoop, and an embroidery needle. The Mountain Meadow pattern is printed on adhesive Solvy paper, so all you need to do is follow the lines!
🧵 Stitch Guide & Full Instructions: containing all of the photos and guidance you'll need, our Stitch Guide also includes QR codes leading to tutorial videos for each stitch used in this kit.
The finished Mountain Meadow piece measures 6 inches across.

We supply all kits with this thread, because we think it's the best thread there is.
We cut the thread into 1m lengths and attach it to our bespoke thread organisers - and we include lots of extra thread so you won't run out.
We're supplied with large cones of this thread, which are easier to measure your thread out from than the normal 8m Skeins!

We're really proud of this fabric. A LOT of cotton fabric out there comes from China, and is potentially picked by enslaved Uighurs (BBC investigation).
So we've made sure our fabric is not.
Made from cotton that's organically grown in India by a family run business. It's woven and dyed by the same firm. Importantly, they recycle the water used (growing and dying cotton uses a LOT of water) as well as only using a "Low impact" dying process.
The cushions we supply come from the same fabric - they're stitched for us by a women's co-operative in Kerala.
Our Tote bags are certified GOTS and made in India by another company.

Gamechanger.
We print each pattern onto a water soluble adhesive fabric stabiliser - when the kit arrives, simply peel the pattern off the backing paper and stick it onto the fabric. Once you've finished stitching, the stabiliser dissolves away in lukewarm water.
Why's it a game changer?
1. The extra strength the stabiliser provides while stitching prevents the fabric from misbehaving whilst stitching.
2. There's no problems with being able to see the pattern whilst stitching - white background, black pattern.
3. There's no printed pattern showing after you've washed the stabiliser away. Just your stitching.
4. Because we print this ourselves, we don't have to buy bulk pre-printed cotton. We'll always know who makes our fabric and where the cotton is grown.

Each hoop kit comes with felt included, which is for backing your finished piece. Doing so protects the stitches, and makes sure the colours in your piece isn't affected by whichever wall you hang it on!
The felt we supply is made in the UK by a family firm using 30% wool/70% viscose.
Vegan?
We have a synthetic felt available, just add a note to your order and we'll make sure you get that instead of the wool felt. We will be changing to only supplying a synthetic felt once we find a UK made one that's only made from recycled materials and or non-plastic based - if you know of such a felt, PLEASE let us know about it!
Felt isn't included in the Banner kits as it's not necessary. Likewise, the cushion and tote bag kits don't need the backing felt - you'll find an iron on interfacing included in these kits.
