If you love embroidery, you'll be enchanted by the world of ribbon embroidery. This timeless technique involves decorative needlework using ribbons to create textured designs on fabric, and it has a rich history that spans centuries and cultures. Its origins likely began in the late 16th century, gaining popularity in 17th-century Europe, particularly in France. By the 18th century, it was known as "rococo silk embroidery" and was especially cherished by the nobility for its intricate detail.

Within this box, you'll have the opportunity to explore various stitch techniques, some of which are inspired by classic embroidery. You’ll work with a large needle and a collection of 8 luxurious double-faced satin ribbons of different sizes. The fabric base is supreme Irish Linen, providing an ideal texture for your artistic endeavours. 

Large, delicate violet Aster Flowers take centre stage, encircled by the fragrant Grape Hyacinths, wild roses, and tiny embroidered daisies. These elements are intertwined with ribbons and embroidered leaves and stems, creating a tapestry of elegance and beauty that whispers sweet nothings to the soul.
