Tree of Life embroidery hoop kit

The Tree of Life folk embroidery hoop kit is inspired by a textile fragment with a cypress tree motif. The Cypress tree motif originated as a Persian motif then made it way into ancient Roman and Greek art and became a symbol of mourning which continued into medieval art. In the Christian age, classical symbols of mourning came to be overlaid with connotations of eternal life. My high quality kits include the design printed on 100% Kona cotton, 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, chain stitch
