This is a lovely crewel work starter set with everything you could want to begin your crewel work journey very carefully put together with a great deal of thought and a joy to receive. Many thanks to the team at the Crewel work company for all their efforts they definitely get 5 stars plus from me
So beautiful xxx I have been meaning to start the kit for ages but have been unwell, but am going to start today x the kit is packaged so beautifully and you can tell how much love and care has gone into not only the design but also the presentation of the kit xx thank you 🙏 next purchase will be the course! 🥰
This was more challenging than I bargained for. I tried it without the course video (and received excellent customer support), but purchasing the video was a game changer. I didn't really understand the stitches until I saw them in the video. I had to use my magnifying lamp throughout due to the small scale. I enjoyed learning new techniques and using silk and gold threads for the first time. High quality material and plenty of thread. Very happy with this project.
This was my first kit from The Crewel Work Company. I love the composition. The instructions were clear and walked me through some stitching that I thought would be beyond my abilities. The kit arrived promptly and was beautifully packaged.
I am so impressed by the quality of the kit. The twill and yarn are beautiful. The design is delightful and the instructions were spot on. Thank you for the quality and thought. I am excited to start my next kit.
It’s so much fun getting packages from The Crewel Work Company. First you get a brown packing box. You open it taking great care not to damage what’s inside. Then you see that beautiful blue box, which you can’t wait to open. You take a deep breath. You open up the blue box and very carefully take away the round tape on the tissue paper. And then you behold the most wonderful crewel kit ever - beautifully packaged, complete instructions, gorgeous materials. You think “This can’t happen again.” But it does…every time you order something.
This was a linen only purchased in Australia, as I am a relative beginner, and so just used leftover wool in the stash. So relaxing and rewarding to stitch! I am now a CWC convert.
Lovely materials, clear instructions and a good introduction to crewel. It was my first project and, it happens, a good choice. I love the design, it looks to me like a pesky deer eating away at my garden.
I love it. This is my first kit. The instructions are very good and easy to follow. I would like to get the Scottish play if you get it back in stock. I am really enjoying working on this kit and will be getting more.
Thank you
Diane
I received this course, alongside the kit, as a present after starting crewelwork several months ago and can honestly say its one of the best presents I've ever had, The tips and techniques I learnt on the course have taken my crewel obsession to the next level and the difference between my pre and post course pieces is very noticeable. It was easy to follow and an absolute joy with the benefit of being able to watch it in manageable chunks which would have been lost in a face to face environment. It would have been as beneficial even if I'd not got the accompanying kit. I can't recommend this course highly enough
For two hand stitching, it's great to use the barrel clamp for when you don't want to sit and stitch without worrying where your work is. I have it attached to my desk keyboard tray and listen / watch Youtube videos on stitching. Need to get a better chair and the setup will be perfect. Thank you so much
Hello Philippa, Denise from your class in Nelson many years ago. This kit is absolutely gorgeous. We have a 9 year old West Highland Terrier, would u consider doing a Beginners Kit?
I don’t like the topic but do love the overall sense of movement in the piece. So pleased that the Hunter is a rotten shot
Received the Rowan tree kit and was blown away by the presentation. Like a jewel box. I haven’t started yet but hope to soon. The fabric is absolutely lovely and the threads are a joy. I have some liberty of London fabric which will finish the project perfectly. Thank you so much
Excellent! Sara is terrific! Learn a lot!
As I am working on other projects at this time, I have yet to start the Elizabethan Oakapple, but I am more than impressed by the beautiful colours of the wools & accompanying materials.
Beautifully packaged and comes with excellent instructions books.
