Stitch Embroidery Kit
Posted in Sewing on 05/16/2004 08:53 am by admin
Name, or make of school sewing kit?
Very hard to describe, but I'll have a go:
To teach embroidery / sewing - UK, 1960's,
this kit, to make a cute box, with a flap-over lid
measuring approx. 7 inches across
consisted of:
Ready-made / cut-out shapes of
cardboard, with a set of pictures (themed EG. kittens),
were covered in thin clear (protective) plastic -
each piece has punched out holes.
Pieces are put side by side, and hand-stitched together
with embroidery thread...
To make the bottom of the box - a large picture is used
(smaller pieces are placed around this).
The lid consists of another large picture.
The end result is a shaped box EG. hexagonal,
with pictures inside and outside...
I'm really keen to acquire one of these, but can't
cos I don't know what they're called.
Please help if you can.
Thanks.
I do not know anything about embroidery, so I checked a couple of websites for information. Try http://www.instructables.com/id/Embroidery-101/ because that gives the basics and may lead you into greater understanding on this topic.
