Description

Amid the ongoing crisis in Ukraine, the country's national flower - the sunflower - has become a symbol of hope and solidarity around the world. 

Elizabeth Bradley has reimagined their Mini Sunflower Kit with a blue background as tribute to the people of Ukraine and will be donating 100% of all profits from these two designs to the Disaster Emergency Committee Ukraine Appeal through Work For Good. 

At least two million people have fled their homes to escape conflict in Ukraine. Leaving behind jobs, belongings and loved ones, they now face an uncertain future. Intense conflict in Ukraine is threatening the lives and livelihoods of civilians across the country. Families have been separated. People have been injured. Lives have been lost. Homes have been destroyed or are unsafe to live in. Critical infrastructure such as health facilities, water supplies and schools have also been damaged or destroyed. 

At Ukraine's borders with Poland, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia and Moldova, huge numbers of people are arriving with only what they can carry. In many places there are long waits to cross and scant facilities waiting for them on the other side, with temperatures dropping below freezing overnight. There have also been increasing media reports of racism against people of color who are being refused access to relief, aid and the right to cross the border safely. 

DEC charities are in Ukraine and neighboring countries meeting the needs of all refugees and displaced people. 

Elizabeth Bradley Tapestry Kits are assembled in Wales, with wool sourced from Australia and spun and dyed in the north of England. These needlepoint pillow kits contain clear instructions for the Victorian Cross Stitch, which is the recommended stitch for this kit, to ensure a superior stitching experience and a high-quality finished product.

This kit features a 6" x 6" design on a 10" x 10" canvas and includes a chart card, precision printed canvas measuring 10 holes per inch, needles & needle threader, 4-ply Elizabeth Bradley Tapestry Wool, and full stitching instructions.

Our Commercial Participation statement for this campaign: 100% of profits from Mini Sunflower & Mini Blue Sunflower will be donated to Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) via Work for Good
