embroidery by numbers

nancy nicholson 2Anyone remember paint by numbers kits?

I used to love them.

I was reminded of them when I came across these embroidery kits by Nancy Nicholson.

I think they’d be great for beginners, or for a keen and crafty older child to tackle. As easy as one, two, three.

But with rather nicer results. ♥

    • It’s funny, I used to hate the results of paint by numbers, although I enjoyed doing them. But when I see the completed ones now I love them!

    • Hi Susan, there is a link to Nancy’s site where her name is highlighted in the blog post. You can buy her kits there.

  1. Lovely embroidery kits. Your mention of painting by numbers has brought back some good memories. With all the time spent indoors at the moment, it would be a good opportunity to tackle such projects.
