Snake plant is a great houseplant and now you can stitch one too!

This is the perfect project to try as you can work on it at your own pace and learn a new skill and enjoy the mindful craft of embroidery. It makes the perfect gift for someone who enjoys crafts, a plant lover or a crafty plant lover.

This design was inspired by the plant in my parents living room growing up - I was always fascinated by it's colloquial name (Mother-In-Law's Tongue). In this design I wanted to capture the detail that each of the long spikes of leaves have on them.

I love this design as it uses just two different embroidery stitches and combines these with felt to create a contemporary, modern stitched artwork.

The design consists of two different embroidery stitches (arrowhead stitch and whipped backstitch). These are stitches that you'll be able to tackle even if you've never tried embroidery before. It's a great kit whether you are a seasoned embroider or relatively new to picking up a needle, the colour support booklet will guide your through each of these stitches.

This listing is for an embroidery DIY kit which will arrive with you packaged in a A5 sized box (that fits straight through a standard letterbox).

The kit contains:
- a 5 inch embroidery hoop
- cotton backing fabric
- printed instruction booklet with step by step guidance for all stages of the project
- 100% cotton embroidery thread
- wool mix felt
- embroidery needle
- pins

To complete the project you will also need a pair of small sharp scissors which are not provided in the kit.
