A perfect keepsake, this easy mini do-it-yourself initial needlepoint kit (8" x 8" - 20cm x 20cm) includes 100% pure tapestry wool and a printed canvas with your choice of letter. Great for an adult beginner stitcher. Option of 4 different shades (however, if you have another color in mind, please let me know as I may be able to customize). The finished design adds a personalized touch to a nursery or child's room and features the initial floating in a sky of creamy clouds. This craft project is perfect for beginners (needlepointing is very easy and this design uses one simple stitch). Experienced needlepointers will love it too because it is so fun to stitch up (and doesn't take forever!). Stitched in durable wool, this keepsake could be made into a pillow that will last many years or framed as shown in photo (frame is not included in kit).

This listing includes a printed canvas, tapestry wool and a needle & threader. Picture frame and pillow finishing materials are not included. If you wish to purchase this design as a pillow kit option click here, www.etsy.com/listing/535252437

Included in this kit:

• Full colour printed 12 count needlepoint canvas with chosen initial (design measures 8"x8") makes stitching easy and accurate.

• Appleton tapestry wool - I supply generous amounts of Appleton 4 ply tapestry 100% wool to finish the design in continental or basketweave tent stitch. Spun and dyed in Buckinghamshire, England, Appleton has been producing high quality wool for over 180 years. I love the durability and the shades of Appleton, and, nothing beats the look and feel of wool. Tapestry wool does not need to be split - you just thread and stitch, it covers the canvas perfectly and provides very even tension;

• Paper pattern: a colour 8.5"x11" colour symbol pattern is provided for reference.

• Step-by-step photo instructions on how to needlepoint using the recommended stitches. These very detailed instructions will get a beginner up and stitching and include all the information you need to complete the design.

• Size 20 tapestry needle and threader.
