Jungle Kit

This kit introduces one of the most exciting and fun styles of embroidery – stumpwork. This leaf design invites you to try one of the most versatile and foundational techniques in this style of embroidery, the detached wired slip. It will unlock endless possibilities in taking your embroidery off the fabric and into 3 dimensions.

 With the materials included in this kit you’ll be able to make up to 2 leaves with the pattern templates provided, with lovely hand dyed fabric to spare. But you can also choose to make your own shape – petals, wings…the choice is yours; the techniques are the same.

What you'll get:

•             2 x 10" square pieces of hand-dyed cotton fabric

•             2 x 3m lengths hand-dyed variegated stranded cotton thread, matched to the fabric

•             1 x needle

•      2 x lengths paper covered wire

•             14 page fully illustrated instruction booklet and pattern sheet.

And FREE UK shipping.

What you'll also need:

•             To do this kind of work you will need a seat frame or table clamp to hold your hoop, as you’ll need both hands free to do the buttonhole stitch. For this project a small 4” to 6” hoop is ideal. Larger hoops can be used but the fabric included may not fit.

•             Embroidery scissors

•             Coloured markers or felt tip pens

•             Recommended but not essential: Air-erasable pen to sketch any leaf decoration; fabric scissors
