Full description

Inspired by two different red robin fabrics, my collection of vintage and reclaimed textiles and trims is perfect for Christmas-style slow stitching projects. I have carefully selected a variety of tones and shades of red to complement the colours of the birds, and added richness and contrast with greens, golds and creams.

My kits are ideal for those new to the art of slow stitching, as well as those looking to build their collection of beautiful fabric scraps. Presented in a sturdy card box that fits through a letterbox, Robin Red would make a lovely gift for a crafty friend - if you can bear to part with it, of course.

Your box will include a piece of calico fabric for a foundation to sew into, needles and pins, and my introduction to slow stitching leaflet and stitching guide (you can swap this for an emailed copy plus extra textiles - see options).

One of my larger kits, with over 40 pieces of co-ordinated fabrics and trims. All carefully selected from my own collection or sourced from local vintage shops and individual sellers, these include.

- two robin-themed textiles, in different tones and shades

- vintage Japanese striped silk

- jacquard upholstery (different one in each box)

- tweed wool offcut from a mediaeval costume project

- vintage checked textured upholstery

- scraps of antique velvet curtains

- embroidered motif

- floral quilting cottons

- scraps of sari silk

- upholstery fringing and flat braid

- vintage tatting and reclaimed cotton lace

- ribbon, ric-rac and tape

- tapestry, darning and knitting yarns

- hand-dyed wool & linen yarns

- embroidery threads (new)

- old buttons from my tin (colours vary)
