About the kit:
Early in the pandemic, I participated in Sue Spargo's 90-Day Instagram stitch-a-day challenge. Having no previous embroidery knowledge, one or two designs just for fun, and see what I could learn using my hand-dyed embroidery thread. However, it was so addictive I ended up doing over 30 of them. The patterns from her challenge are now available in a printed booklet, and I'm excited to offer you the chance to try it out for yourself!
This kit uses hand-dyed Tencel™ yarn and naturally-dyed wool from my studiomate, .
With The Sampler Kit, and (book and booklet sold separately), you have everything you need to begin right away!
I designed this kit to allow you to try out a smaller version of the Circle Sampler for yourself! Included is an undyed background wool rectangle, three colored wool pieces for cutting out circles, and a wooden circle template. A sewing kit includes a hand sewing needle and sewing thread for attaching your circles to the background fabric. The kit also includes two high-quality milliners needles that are approrpriate in size for the Tencel™ (I found the milliners were the most versatile, and could be used for all types of stitches included in the pattern booklet).
