The design is printed on the fabric, so you stretch it in the hoop, stitch over the lines with the colored threads in the kit, then cut the heart out, sew it up and hang it by its cord. Pick from eight designs, from Santa and a red cardinal on a winter branch to a snowy village with skaters on a frozen pond, or take all eight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo chart to count. No blank cloth to guess at. The picture is already there, waiting for the thread.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe pattern is already on the fabric\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost embroidery kits lose people at the start. There is a grid of symbols to count, or a transfer to trace before a single stitch goes in. Here the whole design arrives printed onto the cloth in fine gray lines, the outline of the heart around it, so you know where every leaf, mitten and snowflake goes before you thread the needle. The hoop holds the fabric drum-tight while you work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is pitched at beginners and anyone with a little embroidery behind them. The finished hearts are built from a few simple ideas: blocks of smooth satin stitch for a cardinal's feathers or Santa's hat, fine lines for branches and string lights, and tiny raised knots scattered across the background like falling snow. Go slowly on the first one and the second goes faster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEight designs, or one of each\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSanta and Gingerbread are the busiest and the most colorful. Santa's face sits beside a reindeer, a pair of red mittens, a wrapped present and a string of lights winding across the heart, while Gingerbread fills it with a gingerbread man, a candy cane, a mug of cocoa, a slice of orange and a Christmas pudding. Winter Village and Skiing are little scenes: a cottage, a decorated tree, a snowman and skaters on a pond in one, skiers racing down a mountainside in the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe quieter four lean on soft green and cream. Snowflakes is a scatter of big and small flakes, Mistletoe is long leaves and white berries trailing over the heart, Forest Deer is a wood of small pine trees with a gray deer and a barn among them, and Cardinal is a red bird perched on a leafy branch with a cluster of berries above it. The Set of 8 brings every design, for a tree hung with eight different hearts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA quiet project now, an ornament every Christmas after\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome evenings call for something to do with your hands that is not a screen. A hoop, a cup of tea and a design that grows a little more every time you pick it up is about as calm as the season gets, and you can put it down mid-leaf and come back to it the next night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen it is finished, the heart is soft and plump with the stitching standing out in relief, and the cord loop at the top lets it hang from a branch, a garland, a wreath or a door handle. Make one for the tree, or make all eight and hang them together, and each year when the decorations come out of the box there is one you stitched yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eType: DIY embroidery kit for a heart-shaped hanging ornament\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigns: Santa, Gingerbread, Snowflakes, Mistletoe, Forest Deer, Skiing, Cardinal and Winter Village, each sold singly, or a Set of 8 with one of each\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSkill level: Beginner to intermediate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnique: Embroidery over a design printed on the fabric\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial: Cloth with the design printed on it, cotton embroidery thread\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: About 5.9 in (15 cm) tall when finished\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePacked size: 3.9 x 3.9 x 2 in (10 x 10 x 5 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePacked weight: 3.1 oz (88 g)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHanging: Cord loop at the top of the finished heart\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse: Christmas tree, garland, wreath, door handle or window decoration\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Includes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSanta, Gingerbread, Snowflakes, Mistletoe, Forest Deer, Skiing, Cardinal or Winter Village:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1x Fabric Panel with the Heart Design Printed On It\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1x Set of Cotton Embroidery Threads\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1x Set of Embroidery Needles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1x Embroidery Hoop\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1x Hanging Cord\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet of 8:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e8x Embroidery Ornament Kits, one of each design, each with the items above\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Ridgewell Living","offers":[{"title":"Santa","offer_id":68127931760936,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gingerbread","offer_id":68127931793704,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Snowflakes","offer_id":68127931826472,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Mistletoe","offer_id":68127931859240,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Forest Deer","offer_id":68127931892008,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Skiing","offer_id":68127931924776,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cardinal","offer_id":68127931957544,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Winter Village","offer_id":68127931990312,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of 8","offer_id":68127932023080,"sku":null,"price":106.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/9430\/5064\/files\/0774-01.png?v=1794211033","url":"https:\/\/ridgewellliving.com\/en-au\/products\/christmas-embroidery-ornament-kit-diy-heart-in-8-designs-or-set-of-8","provider":"Ridgewell Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
