Whimsical, natural and historical cross stitch kits

I'm lucky to live in the heart of the Dorset countryside, surrounded by fields and farming and nature. I take inspiration from what I see everyday. I have cross stitched since primary school but I also embroider, knit and crochet. I am happy whilst working with thread or designing patterns to work with thread. I'm very keen to expand into historical cross stitch - I read history at university and mediaeval illuminated manuscripts are just crying out to be converted into cross stitch patterns. Watch this space: I'm working on a series of historical roses at the moment and hope to list them here later in the year.

I sell cross stitch kits for bookmarks and images of birds, flowers and cats, with everything included so you too can enjoy the relaxation of making something by hand.
