FAQ
A few things people often ask before they start. If your question isn't answered here, we're always happy to help — just get in touch.
Q: I’ve never tried embroidery or felt appliqué before. Is this bundle suitable for me?
A: Yes. The Spiral Sampler is designed for first-time embroiderers, while the Wild Hare is labelled Confident Beginner. We recommend starting with the Spiral Sampler to learn the basics of embroidery, then moving on to Wild Hare, where you can use your new stitching skills to add decorative details to the felt appliqué.
Q: Why combine embroidery and felt appliqué in one bundle?
A: The two kits let you experience two different approaches to hand stitching. With Spiral Sampler, you learn embroidery stitches on a printed fabric design. With Wild Hare, you cut, layer and stitch felt shapes before adding embroidered details. Trying both can help you discover which type of project you enjoy most.

About the artists
Jessica Long Embroidery, Arizona, USA
10+ Years Designing17,600+ Etsy Reviews
After a career in a biotech lab, Jessica turned to hand embroidery following the birth of her son, looking for a way to slow down, connect with her hands and reduce anxiety. Having felt intimidated when she first picked up a needle, she now designs colourful, approachable kits with step-by-step guidance to help others discover the slow, satisfying pleasure of making.
Inspired by her lifelong love of natural science illustration, her patterns bring animals and florals to life. Each is designed to be enjoyed one relaxing stitch at a time.
Corinne Lapierre, Yorkshire, UK
Corinne Lapierre's story began far from the meadow. After a career in fashion design, she stepped away to raise her three young children, and discovered felt through millinery (hat making). It was love at first sight. In 2009 she started selling felted pieces at craft fairs, and a little make-your-own gingerbread kit one Christmas was such an instant hit that her business was born the following year.
Today her kits are still designed and made by a small team in Yorkshire, England, inspired by nature, folk art and traditional textile crafts.
