A Espera / The Waiting Beginner Needlepoint Kit

This is a high-quality printed canvas with a modern design, that can be transformed into a beautiful wall hanging, or stitched in a tote bag or pillow case. The creativity is the limit!

We love the feeling of nostalgia that this "A Espera" (The Waiting) brings to us! The tranquility, lonely but yet serene atmosphere that you can recreate for you.

What is included in the “Complete Needlepoint Kit” option 

• Original artwork printed in premium Zweigart Interlock 10 HPI canvas, with edges sewed with cotton bias tape
• 2 John James tapestry needles
• Flyer with the color threads mapping so you can start stitching quickly. 
• DMC Soft Cotton threads with enough quantity to stitch with the continental tent stitch (more information in the FAQ's below; if you need more thread, leave a note at checkout)
• Needlepoint booklet with instructions on starting needlepoint, tips for selecting needlepoint stitches, and a library of favorite stitches
• Our bespoke tube packaging, portable and sustainable & perfect for gifting.
• Featured artwork: “A Espera / The Waiting”, Paola Saliby
• Printed design measures 15x15 cm / 6x6 in

When you buy the “Printed canvas only” option, all the above is included except the threads, and just a single needle. It’s the perfect option if you want to create your own color variation, or re-use threads and yarn you might have at home!

Please note that we only include 1 printed Needlepoint booklet per order. If you add a gift note at checkout, then we’ll add one per kit. Any questions let us know.
