What's included?

  • Comprehensive stitching guide with a step by step instructions, lots of photos for reference and an annotated plan for the project

  • Antique French linen with the embroidery design already hand printed ready for you to start stitching, as well as a piece of antique broderie anglais or lace to drape and create the gown

  • Card with all of the threads you will need to complete this project

  • Open access to contact me with questions about your stitching while you are working on the project - I am always very happy to help or provide a bit of guidance (or just to update you on what Florence has been up to)

Can I stitch this?

Whilst not particularly difficult, there are a number of different embroidery stitches used in this kit.  YouTube is always a great resource for demonstrations if you are unsure how to complete a certain stitch.

Is this sized to fit the heirloom bunting?

Absolutely!  This has been sized to fit a bunting flag (and looks gorgeous strung as part of my Christmas strand), but the design comes on a good sized piece of antique linen so, if bunting isn't your thing, it would look equally lovely made up as a bowl filler, as a patch on a bag or mounted in a little frame.

The instructions for making your own strand of heirloom Christmas bunting can be found here.
