Have a taster at blackwork embroidery with this gorgeous fox coaster kit!
Blackwork embroidery is made using just one stitch: backstitch. Blackwork is stitched on gridded aida fabric (like cross stitch) and you make straight line stitches using the holes in the fabric as a guide. The kit comes with a gridded chart so you count how many squares between where you want to start and finish each stitch. Blackwork embroidery is characterised by beautiful geometric patterns, and this kit is a prime example of that.
This kit is perfect for beginners to blackwork as it is a small design that can be finished in a few evenings. With this kit you’ll embroider the fox design on the fabric, and then fit it into the clear plastic coaster, making a project that you can use and enjoy after you’ve finished!
This kit contains:
16 count white cotton Aida
Pre-sorted Anchor Stranded Cotton and Pearl thread on a colour printed thread card
Size 26 Tapestry Needle by John James
