Two in the Bush Embroidery Kit

Designed by Mary Self
A highlight of a recent trip to England was a visit to Blackwell House in the Lake District that had been designed by the architect Mackay Hugh Baillie Scott (1865 – 1945). The key design theme at Blackwell house was the Rowan Tree with the leaves and berries executed in carved wood, plaster work and textiles.
This design is based on an embroidered screen that is held in the Victoria and Albert Museum.

The outlines are stitched for you to embroider and embellish as you wish. Our sample uses the enclosed scan of the outlines for you to use as patterns for applique, either with felt as in the sample or material. Wool felt and Strand yarn is included in the Full Kit.

Fantasy Tree Blue Embroidery Kit

Designed by Mary Self I come from South Taranaki where the trees are all windswept in one direction so this is a celebration of the effect of mother nature. The stitches used are blanket stitch, lazy daisy, split stitch, running stitch and French knots. In the following set of instructions we have described the threads and stitches that we used in our sample. However, please feel free to use other threads and your favourite stitches. This is freestyle embroidery and by varying the methods you use, your embroidery will become unique. The outlines of the leaves, branches and trunks are stitched for you to embroider and embellish as you wish. Our sample uses the enclosed scan of the outlines for you to use as patterns for applique, either with felt as in the sample or material.
