On a summer day, when the great heat induced a general thirst among the beasts, a Lion and a Boar came at the same moment to a small well to drink.
They fiercely disputed which of them should drink first, and were soon engaged in the agonies of a mortal combat.
When they stopped suddenly to catch their breath for a fiercer renewal of the fight, they saw a Vulture waiting in the distance to feast on the one that should fall first.
They at once made up their quarrel, saying, “It is better for us to make friends, than to become the food of Crows or Vultures.”
Better to be friends than fight
This kit is suitable for beginners.
You will use three core embroidery stitches: straight stitch, chain stitch and running stitch.
All you need is a pair of scissors, everything else is included in the box:
- The design printed on cotton twill
- A detailed guide on the embroidery stitches
- An easy to follow colour coded stitching plan
- All the thread you need on colour coded bobbins
- Several needles
- A tote bag to enable you to easily transport your kit
The finished design will measure approx 7" x 10" (18 cm x 27 cm) and fit in an A4 frame. We expect it'll take 1 months to stitch (depending on how addicted you get to sewing of course!). We recommend stretching and mounting the finished piece prior to framing.
We have created a video guiding you through all the key stitching areas to accompany The Lion, The Boar and The Vulture kit. You will find guides on each type of stitch used in the how to guides
