Medallion Sampler Embroidery Kit
About the kit:
This spring, I participated in Sue Spargo's 90-Day Instagram stitch-a-day challenge. Having no previous embroidery knowledge, I thought I would try out one or two designs just for fun, and see what I could learn using my hand-dyed embroidery thread. However, it was so addictive I ended up doing over 30 of them. The patterns from her challenge are now available in a printed booklet, and I'm excited to offer you the chance to try it out for yourself!
Included is a 9-medallion sample wool pack, using naturally-dyed wool from Jean Haley Dye + Design. This is a totally new offering in my store, so I only have a few kits available to see if there's any interest. If you are interested but would like a larger wool pack, please contact me and we can collaborate!
