Kit: Twining Leaves

Twining Leaves

Hand Embroidery Project Kit

Twining Leaves is a gentle, richly textured hand-embroidery project designed to invite you into slow, thoughtful stitching. Inspired by trailing foliage and soft, natural greens, this kit combines delicate surface embroidery with subtle raised elements and a touch of gold for quiet sparkle.

At its heart is a flowing vine motif, worked with soft cotton threads, couched gold passing thread, and beautifully wrapped beads that add depth and interest without feeling overwhelming. The result is elegant, organic, and deeply satisfying to stitch — a piece that feels both traditional and fresh.

This project is ideal if you enjoy learning new techniques at an unhurried pace, with clear guidance and thoughtfully chosen materials.

✦ What’s included in your kit

Your Twining Leaves kit has been carefully assembled so you can focus on the joy of stitching:

• Wooden beads and materials for wrapped bead embellishment

• Velvet board for bead preparation

• Needles

• A beautifully presented, full-colour instruction booklet, with step-by-step photographs and clear explanations

Everything arrives neatly packaged and ready to begin — a little moment of ceremony when you open the box.

✦ Techniques you’ll explore

This project introduces (or revisits) a range of satisfying techniques, including:

• Leaf stitches and textured foliage

• Couching with metal thread

• Wrapped bead embroidery

• Building rhythm and flow in organic designs

The instructions are detailed and encouraging, making this an excellent confidence-builder as well as a relaxing creative retreat.

✦ Skill level

Adventurous beginner to intermediate

You don’t need advanced experience, but some familiarity with basic embroidery stitches will be helpful. The project is designed to stretch your skills gently, with plenty of visual guidance along the way.

✦ A small sanctuary of stitching

Whether you stitch a little at a time or settle in for longer, quieter sessions, Twining Leaves offers a calm, restorative experience — a piece to enjoy as much in the making as in the finished result.

Perfect as a gift (to yourself or another stitch-lover), or as a thoughtful introduction to more textural embroidery techniques.
