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: Why is this kit rated Confident Beginner if it mostly uses one stitch?

A: Difficulty ratings are based on precision rather than the number of stitches learned. While sampler kits introduce many stitch types in small bursts, this design relies heavily on chain stitch to fill large areas and outline detailed shapes. It requires a little extra focus on thread tension and stitch placement to keep bird bodies and feathers looking smooth and cohesive.
