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: Are there any specific details I should pay extra attention to when I start?

A: The moon detail. The pattern calls for a 1-strand split stitch to give the moon a soft, light texture against the navy fabric. If you prefer a fuller, more solid look, you can easily tweak it by stitching with 2 strands or blending in a few light grey stitches for extra depth and shadowing.

Q: Does the printed pattern wash out after I finish?

A: No, the pattern lines are printed permanently onto the navy fabric. You won't have to worry about them fading while you work, but you will want to stitch carefully over the lines to cover them completely.

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.
