2 reviews for Sunbeams hand embroidery kit

  1. Louise Bennett –

    I absolutely love this kit. I bought a card with this printed on it from Clare a while ago and was so so excited when she released it as a kit. As always the packaging is beautiful and getting full skeins of dmc thread is a bonus! The fact that Clare always paints her hoops makes me so happy, they really make the embroidery pop. A lovely kit to give as a gift or to buy for yourself. I’m still chugging away at mine slowly but cannot wait to get it up on my wall.

  2. Heather –

    I chose this kit for two reasons. Firstly, I adore Roald Dahl and this quote is a brilliant one. Secondly, I have been following Claire for a while and love everything that she does.
    I have really loved sewing this kit. The stitches are so simple and beautifully described, the colours are amazing and the colourful hoop is a great finishing touch.
    My 4 year old daughter loves the colours so much that she actually asked when I was going to sew some more. She encouraged my me time – immense! She has now claimed the finished item for her room.
