I was in the middle of making Hardanger embroidery, but my hand wasn't doing well, so I gave up. This is a set of plain weave fabric, embroidery hoops, needles, embroidery thread, and books. I was in the middle of making the piece in the fifth photo. The book explains the stitches from the beginning so that even beginners can do it. You can start right away. The finished product will be a piece that you can display for a lifetime.
