The Elizabeth Bradley collection of designs is growing with the addition of seven Starter Kits, four Millefleur Kits and a Tips and Techniques Video that you can access anytime at no additional cost. Since 1986, the Elizabeth Bradley line has featured a vast collection of traditional & contemporary needlework art, and this fall’s new designs build on that elegant heritage.
The seven Starter Kits measure 3”x5” and once complete can be framed or made into an eyeglasses case, scissors case or sachet. The four new 16”x16” Millefleur designs let you update your decor as the beauty of the nature transitions throughout the year.
The Tips and Techniques video is a helpful tool that even seasoned EB stitchers will find handy. Viewing it you will learn how to use each piece of your kit and the correct process for sorting wool colours so every stitch comes out perfect. You will also see exactly how to work the EB signature stitch, the Victorian Cross stitch. The cross stitch is quick, easy and provides a relaxing stitching experience.
Pieces worked in Victorian Cross stitch do not become distorted as each stitch pulls first to the right and then to the left (Left-handers: first to the left and then to the right). For this reason, there is no need to use a frame or stretcher bars with Elizabeth Bradley pieces. The use of the cross stitch is essential when creating carpets because the finished piece needs to remain square over time. Carpets worked in tent stitch would require extensive stretching and re-shaping.
Elizabeth Bradley kits come in so many sizes, there’s bound to be one perfect for you. Choose from the Starter kits, 6”x6” Mini Kits, 12”x12” Blooms, 16”x16” Florals and Animals, and even a few larger designs. No matter which size you choose, Elizabeth Bradley pieces can be finished in various ways including pillows, inserts for acrylic trays, bell pulls, and bespoke carpets and wall hangings.
Each Elizabeth Bradley kit comes with canvas, wool, wool card, chart card, needles, and precision printed canvas to get you on your way!
