Our rather unusual embroidery kits
If you are already experienced at stitching, then our kits will offer you something unlike anything out there. We want to show you that embroidery kits can create art. Whilst everything is designed to be accessible to any skill level, here are some of our more ambitious modern embroidery kits for adults.
Reinventing what an embroidery kit can create
Unique embroidery kits for the modern maker
After discovering the joy of stitching while working in finance, our founder, Eppie, was disappointed by the lack of variety and creativity in the embroidery kits available. She felt that a craft as expressive as embroidery should produce more than just simple designs—it should create art.
That’s why she started The Fabled Thread, with a mission to reinvent embroidery kits for adults. Our kits are designed to help you create pieces that are not only beautiful but also worthy of framing and celebrating for years to come, turning your stitching into true works of art.

We want you to outgrow our embroidery kits
Embroidery kits designed in the UK
Every piece begins with a story, inspiring the design process. Through each of our collections, we encourage you to challenge yourself, develop your skills, and try something new.
But our true goal is to inspire you to create your own designs. While kits are a great way to build confidence, the real magic of embroidery happens when you start expressing your own creative vision. We’re here to help you discover that with our virtual courses, studio membership community, and freestyle supplies.
If you're already a confident stitcher, it might be time to step away from kits and start designing your own pieces. Look at our fabric and thread bundles, which are the perfect starting point for your freestyle journey.

Our freestyle embroidery virtual course
We are passionate about helping to build your creative confidence and empowering you to design your own pieces. So, after teaching and running workshops, Eppie started breaking down the whole design process into simple and approachable steps, helping you to find your own creative voice!
Over the course of 90 minutes, our freestyle embroidery course will guide you through every step of the design process, from finding inspiration, choosing colours, translating designs and starting to stitch. You'll have lifetime access, so you can watch and re-watch whenever suits you.
