Whale Banner Embroidery Kit

This paisley Whale banner kit is perfect for beginners learning the basics of hand embroidery.

The DIY kit provides everything you need to create your own embroidered wall hanging. Our whale design uses 10 basic embroidery stitches, and the useful guide includes all the instructions and photos you need to learn each one - making it easy to create your own piece of wall art while learning a new skill!

    1. Our kits are as eco-friendly as possible, with organic & ethically sourced fabric, FSC wooden hoops made in the UK, FSC and or recycled paper/card, and recycled postal mailers.

    2. All Paraffle kits are handmade in Scotland, in our Edinburgh studio - buying from us means supporting a small, female founded business.

    3. All of our kits - from super simple to intermediate - include a detailed booklet, with lots of photos to teach you each stitch. If videos are more your style, there’s video tutorials covering every stitch you’ll need in our ‘Stitches’ blog.

    4. The kit includes a high quality reference photo of the finished design, and an easy to follow key showing you which stitches and colours to use.

    5. Each kit includes a quality 8 inch wooden hoop and plenty of DMC thread (so don’t worry if you make a mistake or want to practice first!).

    6. Our kits come with a pre-printed pattern to stick onto your fabric. It’s water-soluble, so you simply stitch over it, then wash it away (don’t worry, the threads are coloursafe!). Our patterns aren’t printed directly onto the fabric - we’ve done our research, and haven’t found any fabric printers that can tell us exactly where their fabric comes from and how it’s made. That’s important to us - so we found another way!

    7. Embroidery is a helpful tool for encouraging mindfulness and giving you some extra head space. Our kits aim to gently teach you lifelong skills and get your creative juices flowing (even if you’re not a ‘crafty’ person!).

    8. We’re a carbon neutral business, and donate at least 10% of our profits to charity through dedicated charity designs.

Fast and fabulous!

I'm a beginning embroiderer and was shocked how quickly this came together. The stitch key was easy to follow and had a good variety of beginner-friendly stitches. The materials were such high quality. Since the banner is magnetic, I can swap out my sea friends seasonally.

Absolutely love the banner embroidery kit! Beautiful designs to choose from. Packaged sustainability with literally everything you need. I’ve never done anything like this before but am already underway with my whale, and I’m loving it - the instructions are really clear, even for a total beginner. Brilliant product, beautiful designs - very happy customer!
