Fantasy Tree Pink 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. You could also just stitch them with simple stitching or paint them (we used So Soft fabric paint) and stitch outlines or just unpick the stitching … we would love to see what you will come up with.
