Without revealing too much, we’ll just say this: you’ll be stitching your way to something pretty and practical — a floral-inspired project perfect for springtime strolls or gifting with love.
What’s Inside the Kit?
May’s box is blooming with colourful materials and tools to create your own floral ribbon embroidered bag:
- A natural jute gift bag (20x20x12cm) – your blank canvas!
- 6 beautiful ribbons in Yellow, Eggshell, Emerald Green, Purple, Pink & Royal Blue – ready to be stitched into petals, leaves, and blossoms
- A pack of embroidery threads in gorgeous purples to add depth and detail
- Two specialised needles – a chenille for ribbon work and a crewel for embroidery
- A design template to guide your floral composition
- A water erasable marker for easy sketching and adjusting your design
Discover the Art of Ribbon Embroidery
If you've never tried ribbon embroidery before, you're in for a treat. This technique blends texture and colour in the most satisfying way — perfect for creating lush florals that practically pop off the fabric.
With our step-by-step instructions, you’ll be able to:
- Master a selection of ribbon embroidery stitches
- Combine embroidery thread and ribbon for layered, dimensional florals
- Personalise your bag with a design that's uniquely yours
Moodboard to Inspire
Think cottage garden charm, wildflower meadows, and those long, golden hours of May. From dainty daisies to bold blooms, your bag will blossom with colour and personality. Whether you’re heading to the market or gifting it to a fellow craft lover, this project is bound to brighten any day.
What Could It Be?
We’ll keep the final design under wraps for now, but one thing’s for sure — this project is all about celebrating nature’s palette and the joy of hand-stitching something truly special.
