Wildflower Embroidery Bookmark Kit for Beginners – Botanical DIY

Description

Stitch your own wildflower bookmark: a slim linen-cotton strip pre-printed with one botanical design (chamomile, bellflower, foxglove, starflower, lavender or forget-me-not). A calm, small first project for beginners and a thoughtful handmade gift for a reader.

What’s in the kit

• Pre-printed linen-cotton fabric with your design, plus backing fabric
• Cotton embroidery floss in the colors for the design
• 2 embroidery needles
• 1 ribbon for the tassel
• 1 inner cardboard stiffener and 1 small bottle of white glue
• Color picture tutorial

Size, skill level and time

• Finished size: about 6.7 × 2.6 in (17 × 6.5 cm)
• Skill level: Beginner
• Stitching time: about 3–4 hours

How it works

Stitch over the printed lines and colors on the front fabric, then glue it to the backing around the cardboard stiffener and add the ribbon. The picture tutorial shows the stitches, and our free step-by-step guide covers separating floss, starting and finishing threads.

Good to know

• The supplier lists a small 4 in (10 cm) hoop as optional, so it may not be in your pack. Our Beechwood Embroidery Hoop fits if you like to stitch in a hoop.
• Photos show finished examples; your bookmark is stitched by you.
• Floss and fabric colors may vary slightly from the photos.
