Holiday Wreath Embroidery Kit
Holiday Wreath Embroidery Kit
Stitch your own gorgeous holiday wreath with this unique double hoop embroidery kit! Hang it on your wall during the holiday season or stitch it up as a thoughtful heirloom gift for a friend. Deck your halls with embroidery! Recreate the pictured double hoop style wreath or choose to frame in a standard single embroidery hoop. Be sure to read the details about each option below.
This hand embroidery kit is available in two options:
1. Regular hoop style. Your kit includes 1 hoop (9 inch) and tan fabric permanently printed with the design. This fabric is not stretchy enough to be double hooped so your final hoop art will be framed in a single 9 inch hoop.
2. Double hoop style. Your kit includes 2 hoops (9 inch, 4 inch), tan linen fabric and a print out of the design for you to trace. You must transfer the design to the fabric yourself. This design is complex so please be prepared to spend half an hour tracing the design by hand. Other options include printable stabilizer but please be sure to test your method to ensure it's erasability. Some printer inks are not compatible with this method.
All kits also include:
- 15 skeins of DMC embroidery floss (one color in duplicate)
- Embroidery needles
- The instructions for stitching the pattern
The embroidery pattern includes a stitch and color key (with suggested DMC colors), color photos of stitched pattern, the design sized for a 9 inch hoop ready to trace, a double hoop assembly guide and the link for the video tutorial.
The beginner guide includes a supplies list with suggested products (hoops, needles, fabric, etc) based off of my experience, helpful tips and tricks for transferring design, getting started, and finishing your project, plus diagrams of stitches. This document is also available on my website here and includes videos for most stitches.
To complete the double hoop project you will also need:
- Scissors (embroidery and fabric)
- Wood stain and varnish if you choose to treat your natural wooden hoops
- an Ultra Fine Sharpie or similar for tracing the design
- Glue for finishing (Aleene's, hot glue gun, etc) - or skip the glue and use floss to lace the back of your hoop.
This pattern is for personal use only. Please do not copy or resell finished product.
