Embroidery techniques can be used to personalise clothing, accessories, or even decoratively mend pieces. You can create works of art for display, or decorate something handy, like a tote bag.
Is cross stitch or embroidery easier for beginners?
It depends! Our cross stitch and embroidery kits are all beginner-friendly. While cross stitch has a single and easy to master technique, the patterns aren't printed on the fabric. Embroidery, on the other hand, has the pattern printed, but has more than one technique to learn. Either way, we have comprehensive tutorials to guide you.
What is the benefit of crafting?
Over 70% of Craft Club customers in March 2026 said crafting benefits them as a way to relax and to have a creative outlet. There is a deep wellness theme across responses, as customers have used craft to manage anxiety, ADHD, and stress.
Can I make my own designs?
Absolutely, you can! By drawing your design or printing one and tracing it onto the fabric with a water-soluble pen over a lightbox or window.
What is embroidery?
Embroidery is the craft of decorating fabric or other materials using a needle and thread or yarn. Unlike basic sewing, which is used to construct or repair garments, embroidery is purely decorative.
Are these kits beginner-friendly?
Yes! All of our craft kits are designed to be beginner-friendly. We believe that creativity is for everyone, and want to give people the confidence to find their creative side.
What are the hoops made from?
Embroidery hoops are typically made from bamboo - and this is what the hoops in our kits are made of. There has been a rise in plastic hoops being used, but they can be a bit pricier.
Are there guides included?
Yes, video and written guides are included in our embroidery kits. We want to make crafting as enjoyable as possible, so there's no way we'll leave you hanging!
Is embroidery hard to learn?
No, embroidery is not hard to learn. It does take practice to increase your skill, but we make kits perfect for beginners, so you're more than safe to start here.
Do the minis come with all three patterns, or do I have to choose one?
All embroidery minis kits come with enough materials to create all three patterns! No need to try and choose a favourite, because we sure couldn't!

Love the autumn colours!
I haven't enjoyed embroidery too much in the past because I found the stitching too difficult but I loved this design so much (the cat is so cute and I love the autumn colours!), I really wanted to give embroidery a go again. This project was fun to do, and the materials were high quality which made everything so much easier. I highly recommend this super cute project!
My First Embroidery Kit Ever
I have NEVER embroidered in my life, it’s always seemed to complicated with thread colors, hoop sizes and getting a pattern on the canvas fabric. I stumbled across this company by accident and purchased the cat in the patch embroidery kit and the Halloween cross stitches minis. So far I’ve completed this one! It’s been such a fun learning process and I adore the outcome. Even if you’ve never done it, give it a try. This piece will always be special to me: as it was my first!
The perfect beginner kit!
I ordered this kit never having done embroidery before and I absolutely loved it. It came with everything needed and was easy to follow. I finished it in about 5 evenings and immediately started on the second one I ordered. I'm hooked!
