Peloponnesian Pomegranate embroidery hoop kit
Peloponnesian Pomegranate embroidery hoop kit
A traditional symbol of abundance, life, and beauty, pomegranates are seen in many historic Mediterranean textiles and the Peloponnesian Pomegranate folk embroidery hoop kit is inspired by one of these motifs from a 15th century woven silk brocade. The lovely design is worked in shades of garnet, alizarin and greens and makes an elegant addition to any decor. This is a terrific design for beginners as you learn five embroidery stitches and there is a helpful how-to video on my Demos page. My high quality kits include the design printed on 100% Kona cotton (so you can wash the design after if you like), DMC 100% cotton embroidery floss, John James size 7 embroidery needle, how to embroider instruction booklet, stitch diagram, and 6' beechwood embroidery hoop.
Stitches: Backstitch, satin stitch, French knot, Byzantine fishbone (flat stitch)
Finished size: 6 inches in diameter
