Spare Stitches - Box 11

'Stitch-nic Time' is the theme for the next Stitch Mail project and it combines two of my favourite activities - cross stitch and picnics! 

It is as practical as it is satisfying - a charming little tin designed to keep stitching essentials all in one place, topped with cross stitched lid with a gingham and strawberry theme. Open the tin to reveal a little strawberry needle minder, It’s useful for everyday crafting and SO CUTE!

This one is perfect for a few cosy stitching sessions. It’s a small project and I will guide you through how to put the tin together, once you know how you will want to make these gorgeous little objects for all your friends.

The box includes: 

  • hinged lid tin (approx 95 x 59 x 21mm) 
  • 14 count aida
  • DMC threads
  • needle
  • trims, felt, magnet and glue 
  • instruction guide
  • mini zine with extra stitchy charts
