Strawberry Felds Forever Canvas Work
Hutt Art Class -Strawberry Fields Forever Biscornu
A celebration of a strawberry patch with large juicy strawberries and the white flowers promising more to come. A Biscornu is a small ornamental pincushion. It has 8 sides and is usually secured in the centre of the top and the bottom to give a small depression. The work itself comes from the French, meaning something that has an irregular form with projections. You can stitch one panel, or if you complete the second panel, we will be joining them in the second class to form the biscornu. Using the grid of the canvas and a clear chart will give you confidence to branch out from cross stitch.​ For beginner embroiderers confident in threading a needle The class price will include a colour charted pattern and detailed stitching instructions.

Brown Kiwi Strand Needlepoint Kit
Kiwi Needlepoint Kit
The Kiwi, which is a flightless bird, has become the icon of New Zealand. It is a protected species, like so many New Zealand birds, and efforts are being made to save it from extinction. It is nocturnal and has poor eyesight, but its bill is sensitive with nostrils on the end which allows it to search for the larvae and worms on which it feeds. The thick forests that originally covered most of New Zealand are the Kiwi's natural habitat.

Kokako Strand Needlepoint Kit
Kōkako Needlepoint Kit
The Kōkako belongs to the endemic New Zealand wattlebirds, an ancient family of birds which includes the North and South Island Saddleback and the extinct Huia. In the early 1900s the Kōkako was common in forests throughout New Zealand. South Island Kōkako are now assumed to be extinct. However, it’s remotely possible they may survive in low numbers in remote parts of the South Island and Stewart Island. For the North Island Kōkako, there has been a significant decline over the last 20 years. Management is reversing that trend in many areas, to the point that the Kōkako has been reclassified from “Threatened“ to “At Risk: Recovering“. In Māori myth, the Kōkako filled its wattles with water and brought it to Maui as he fought the sun. Maui rewarded the bird by making its legs long and slender, enabling it to bound through the forest with ease.
