Embroidery Kit

Posted on by

Finished size: approx. 28 x 71 cm

This embroidery kit is designed to give you flexibility and creative freedom. The table runner is stitched on linen fabric with 8 threads per cm, using 2 threads in the needle.

Stitches used:

  • Full cross stitches
  • Half cross stitches
  • Backstitches

I’ve designed the patterns so they can be combined as shown in the example, but it’s entirely up to you how you arrange them. You might repeat a pattern all the way around, or mix them for a more free-form look.

The table runner can also be adjusted in size—longer, or square if you prefer.

Tip: Play with the patterns, create your own design, and most importantly—have fun stitching!

Patterns: Free to use.
