Following the success of smocked post card making workshops, I have developed this kit to allow more enthusiasts to have a go at smocking themselves.

Full description

This is a comprehensive kit designed as an introduction to smocking and suitable for complete beginners. It would appeal to all textile enthusiasts and is a small, easily completed project.

The finished postcard measures 6 x 4 " and can be written and posted if desired!

The kit contains:

a piece of sea blue coloured fabric for the postcard background,

some pre-gathered beige coloured fabric for smocking,

pre-cut stiffening,

a calico backing stitched as a postcard,

a selection of suitable embroidery threads,

a crewel needle,

light green blue accent fabric,

coordinating beads,

2 sheets of clear instructions, including images of examples.

You will need a basic sewing kit to complete the postcard and a sewing machine is desirable, but not essential. If desired you may also like to incorporate some of your own threads, fabric or trimmings.

Designed by Rosalind Atkins in Dorchester
