Lavender Bouquet Embroidery Box with Hoop

The kit is put together so you can begin straight after unpacking. Every thread colour the design calls for is included, along with the tools for the first stitch.

• Pre-drawn design on fabric: lavender and daisies with a yellow ribbon
• Embroidery needles
• Threader
• All matching thread colours
• A pair of scissors
• A sturdy embroidery hoop, 20 cm in diameter
• Access to online video tutorials
• Square box, 24.5 x 24.5 cm

The box comes with access to online videos that show each stitch step by step. That takes the guesswork out of starting: instead of reading a diagram, you watch the needle move, pause the video, rewind it and repeat the stitch until it sits right.

The pre-drawn lines give you the direction. You work section by section and after each one you can see the bouquet grow. The threader helps when the thread will not go through the eye of the needle first time. The packaging and the inserts are labelled in Dutch.

The kit suits anyone who likes working with their hands and wants to slow down while making something. Embroidery needs little space, makes no noise and can be put down at any point, which makes it good company for a quiet evening at home.

As a DIY gift the square box works well, because everything needed is inside and nothing has to be bought on top. Popular occasions are Christmas, a birthday, Mother's Day, a thank you or a creative evening in.

Stretch the fabric evenly in the 20 cm hoop before you make the first stitch. A smooth surface keeps the stitches more regular. The pre-drawn lines show you where the next stitch belongs, so there is nothing to measure and nothing to mark out yourself.

Watch the matching video before you try a new stitch for the first time. Keep the scissors and the threader within reach so you are not hunting for them at every colour change. If you are giving the box away, add a short card as an invitation to try something new.

What is included in the embroidery box? Pre-drawn fabric, embroidery needles, a threader, all matching thread colours, a pair of scissors and a sturdy hoop of 20 cm, plus access to online video tutorials.

Do I have to transfer the design onto the fabric myself? No. The bouquet of lavender and daisies with its yellow ribbon is already pre-drawn, so you stitch directly along the lines.

How big are the hoop and the box? The hoop measures 20 cm in diameter. The square box measures 24.5 x 24.5 cm.

Is the kit suitable if I have never embroidered? Yes. The online videos explain the individual stitches step by step, even if this is the first needle you have held.

Does the box make a good gift? It suits Christmas, a birthday, Mother's Day or a thank you, because everything needed to start is in one box.
