Turn any textile into a work of art with an Avlea Folk Embroidery tapestry rod! Made of beautiful beechwood, they feature removable end caps and a smooth finish that coordinates with many different textiles. Great for cross stitch, embroidery, quilting, handsewing, knit, crochet, or macrame projects. 

Each tapestry rod comes with: one rod, one removable finial (the other is glued in place), and DMC floss for making braided cord

Two sizes available: 

6" size: 5-1/2" between finials, 7-3/4" end-to-end

12" size: 11-1/2" between finials, 13-3/4" end-to-end (I'll have photos of these up soon)

Historically-inspired, modern-made!

Avlea Folk Embroidery brings ancient beauty to the modern world with beautiful folk embroidery kits of the finest quality. I design and make each kit by hand in my Central Oregon studio, to give you a wonderful stitching experience no matter your skill level.

Why is folk fabric so special?

Folk fabrics have been used for hundreds of years to make folk costumes and household embroideries. When you work a cross stitch design on them, they give your stitching a beautiful texture and are a delight to stitch on, plus they're made to stand up to daily use. I source mine from a 3rd-generation family mill in Athens, Greece so you can have an authentic stitching experience.

What if I'm new to cross stitch?

One of the wonderful things about cross stitch folk embroidery is that you can learn how to do it in a couple of hours and enjoy it for a lifetime! If you're new, watch my How To Cross Stitch video to get started on your folk embroidery journey.
