Jacobean crewel work embroidery kit - rabbits
This could be a great Xmas gift for a beginner or intermediate embroiderer.
The kit contains everything you need to create a small, 15cm x 15cm piece using Jacobean crewel stitches on quality linen, showing a couple of cute bunnies in a field
The kit is in original condition and contains linen with stamped design, booklet with instructions and visual representations of all the stitches, all of the coloured wools needed, needles, scissors, hoops, a hoop stand and some kind of weird tool that I think is to tighten and loosen the hoops. The wools are beautifully presented in a box, the hoops and stand are plastic wrapped and never opened, and the whole kit is in a lovely linen bag with a gorgeous Jacobean design on it.
The Crewel Work Company, based in the UK, also has heaps of instruction videos on YouTube to help beginners work the Jacobean stitches.
It’s a really lovely little piece that could be framed for a child’s room or sewn onto a small cushion or cot blanket.
I have opened the box so reduced the price accordingly.
Pick up from Broomfield or add $10 postage.
Edit: More photos are available, message me your email address and I can send the lot

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
