Beaks and Bobbins Dandelion Embroidery Kit

Beaks and Bobbins Dandelion Stitch kit.

Stitch your own beautiful dandelions with this relaxing hand embroidery kit.

The kit gives you the chance to learn and practice an interesting variety of stitches including split stitch, buttonhole stitch, French knots and chain stitch. You will also be guided through the process of adding a subtle sparkle to your work by using seed beads to anchor down delicate sequins and incorporating fine gold thread into your stitches.

If you are new to stitching don’t worry as the illustrated Stitch Glossary is there to guide you through each stitch step by step
