Embroidery is well known to be packed with happiness and stress relief, and has long been our go-to craft for times that you need to slow down, put on some music, or sit and sew by a cozy fire. The meditative care that goes into stitching is healing and creates an enormous sense of accomplishment.⠀

We are offering several downloadable digital pattern files for your use, tried and tested by our stitchers.
About the designs:
Sampler pattern: ideal for beginners, this includes simple stitches to help you practice or learn new ways to create texture.
Heart sampler pattern: a fun way for beginners to embellish a heart design and also practice your stitches (free with sampler pattern purchase)
Lilac Roller Bird pattern: designed by the talented Nzilani at Kulula Goods, featuring a beautiful lilac-breasted roller (the national bird of Kenya!). Nzilani has designed a pattern that is equally challenging, aesthetically captivating and creative.
Beginner booklet: a step by step guide to the patterns, including stitching tips, essential stitch details, resources and inspiration links.
For supplies, we highly recommend sourcing what you need from In Stitches, located in Sarit Centre. They have an astounding collection of DMC threads, hoops and needles of all sizes.
