Folk Artist Lucy Levenson designs beautiful hand painted and embroidered textile artworks and with this kit you can explore the stitches that make her work so distinct. The fabric is printed with the design so you are ready to begin straight away and the kit contains everything you need to create this beautiful heirloom embroidery. A stunning and exclusive design that uses just three simple stitches, this project will take approximately 13 hours – the perfect mindful activity for a holiday, a long journey or just to fill a quiet afternoon with creativity. It is suitable for beginners or more experienced stitchers alike.

In this kit you will find a pre printed fabric, a 6" embroidery hoop, 11 different colours of DMC embroidery silk, an embroidery needle, an embroidery threader and full step-by-step photographic instructions. This is all displayed in a pretty gift box, which is brilliant for sending off in the post to a friend. Just let us know and we will pop in a gorgeous notecard with your message on it!

The hoop can also serve as a frame, making it ready to hang as soon as you have finished. Alternatively, it could be made into a beautiful lavender heart, a cushion, a bridal gift or a small make up bag. This kit makes a wonderful gift for someone crafty and creative - or anyone who likes to keep their hands busy!

The finished heart measures approximately 12cm square.
