You asked for it, we’ve expanded the shop to include stitching projects!
To start out we picked up Sublime Stitching and Olympus Sashiko.
Not only do we have the Sublime Stitching kits and patterns
We also have a pack of embroidery floss to create ANY of the patterns. So if you already have a hoop and needle, pick up a few patterns and the floss pack to create tons of projects! You can work the patterns any way you like: stitching, cross stitch, crewel, more.
The patterns are on 8-1/2″ x 11″ transfer paper, each little pattern (which should be cut from the sheet before use) is larger than you might think, some are 6″ tall. The transfers can be used up to 8 times.
Next up is Sashiko, a traditional Japanese stitching technique. Simple yet elegant.

Here is a sample of Sashiko embroidery, the pattern is
printed on the cotton fabric, and the ink washes out!
These kits include everything you need to finish the project: needle, Sashiko thread, zippers, beads, high quality cotton fabric, Sashiko thimble, and more.
The graphics on the instruction sheet are so easy to follow even though the text is Japanese. Click here for all 5 kits available!
