The Robin - A Celebration in Stitch
A stitch box containing two robin embroidery patterns printed onto pure linen.
***
Robin - erithacus rubecula
Nothing in the world is quite as adorably lovely
as a robin when he shows off - and they are nearly always doing it.
Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden

This embroidery box is a celebration of one of our favourite birds. We are not alone - robins mean so much to many people. Chris and I love to spend time in nature and to document what we see in paint and stitch. Our aim is to spread the joy of being in nature.
- The box will contain two patterns of a robin for you to embroider in our pure silk hand dyed threads
- The first pattern will be a robin in our botanical style. This will be a new pattern designed especially for the box
- The second pattern will be a more realistic filled-stitch robin pattern
- The five pure silk hand dyed threads will be in the traditional colours of the robin
- The pure linen is a soft grey colour which works beautifully with the thread colours.
- There will be a mini box pouch sewn in Liberty of London tana lawns and perfectly complimenting the embroidery.
- There will be a couple of little extras in the box to make it extra special for you!
There is the option to add on a needle book and drawstring bag also sewn in Liberty of London tana lawn.
Everything will be beautifully presented for you xx
This is the first of our Celebration in Stitch boxes where we examine beautiful flora and fauna and we couldn't be more excited! We have many more already planned and can't wait to share them with you over the coming months...
As with all of our patterns, we do not provide a detailed stitch description or placement for the floral robin design but there is more guidance on the filled robin embroidery.
There will also be a standalone video of me stitching the patterns.
*Please note - the image is for illustration purposes only - the contents of the box are a surprise for you!*
Observed in Nature. Held in Stitch.
