Based on the vintage beehive embroidery transfers that are so readily found in charity shops and at vintage fairs, my little beehive uses a handful of very simple stitches with a focus on colour, texture and movement to create a little floral scene. With tiny bees, foxgloves and a vintage skep it is a lovely piece to stitch for both beginners and advanced stitchers. Hand-printed onto antique linen with full instructions the kit is presented in a beautiful folder in which to keep your work.

The design is 7cm by 10cm on a piece of linen 10" square

Note; because we antique linen then there will be variation in the colour, texture and weight from piece to piece.

Ideal as gifts or for yourself, The Stitchery embroidery kits are designed with beginners in mind, as well as advanced stitchers. 

The aim is not to produce a perfect piece of needlework but to encourage the stitcher to slow down and enjoy a little old-fashioned calmness and serenity in a world that is becoming increasingly fast-paced and perhaps a little stressful at times.
