Hand Embroidery Kits

“Caroline’s kits have a very special quality that makes bringing them to life quite magical”

I was very touched to read this comment on Instagram. Embroidery should be fun and relaxing, and stir our creative instincts. Nearly all of my kit designs start as ideas in my head, and are designed so that stitchers of every level can enjoy working them, even if they appear, at first glance, to be quite intricate. I write my instructions as though I am addressing a novice stitcher, and I use a fairly small range of stitches, preferring to use these to create interesting textures, rather than using more complicated decorative stitches.  I also love to include opportunities for stitchers to add their own personal touches to the designs if they want to.

PLEASE NOTE

Update for ALL customers

27 October 2025

I am delighted to announce that we are now able to ship to the US, duty paid and, for the time being, I will absorb the duty.
 

Issue 26 of The Stitcher’s Journal has now been despatched to all overseas subscribers and you should shortly be receiving emails from Royal Mail confirming this, with a tracking number. 

The website has had to be reconfigured so that shipping is no longer included in the prices, but is rather a flat rate, set for whichever country we are sending  to — including the UK — and will be shown at the checkout.  I have of course reduced the kit prices, which used to include shipping, but I have also taken this opportunity to review my prices which have not increased to reflect the considerable increase in costs since February 2022. All in all, I think the results are fair, especially as in carrying out this exercise I realise I have been heavily subsidising the actual postage costs for the past three years.
 
Unfortunately, we are not currently able to take advantage of the Large Letter Rate for shipping to the US, but on a positive note (!)  all orders are now tracked and the flat rate has a greater weight allowance.
 
I will be adding some new kits, bundles and vintage finds and fabrics to the site today, Monday 27th October and through the week, and I really hope things will run smoothly now. 
 
Thank you so much for your support and patience, it means more than I can say.
 
With very best wishes,

Caroline
