With thanks to Son de Flor for permission to use the image as the initial inspiration. Gathering foliage to make a wreath is one of my favourite winter moments, but with crisp snow crunching beneath my boots and wearing such a coat, the shape of which only @sondeflor would dream up — that is where fantasy meets hand embroidery! Using mostly very simple stitches — Straight stitch, couching, a little Satin stitch – this kit is an example of how being creative with the simplest of stitches, using a Straight stitch much as you might use a pencil to make a mark, you can have a lot of fun creating different textures.
