Cotton Clara : Cross Stitch Kit - Samantha Purdy Raincoats

This project was designed by Samantha Purdy, a Canadian Cross Stitch Designer.

Everything you need is contained in this kit including instructions, full colour cross stitch chart, thread, needle, fabric (please note the fabric isn't printed in cross stitch kits), hoop, wadding and a backing disc to finish off your hoop when you're done.

The kit just uses three simple stitches so you could have a go at this if you were a beginner. This may take you between 5 and 10 hours to complete. Maybe more, but either way, it's a lovely kit to get your teeth into and should last you a while. Remember that cross stitch kits don't come with the pattern printed onto them, you build up the pattern onto the fabric using the guide, with your stitches.

This embroidery hoop kit is the one that we would recommend for someone who has perhaps tried a more simple cross stitch before and wants to try something a little more challenging with more thread colours and a more detailed design.
