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 say 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!

These have been a really great and fun way to get into embroidery. I love the patterns and the online tutorials are easy to learn from!
I am sooo happy to have come across Craft Club Kits! Little back story: I resigned from my job in June and been taking this time to pour back into myself and take up new hobbies. Learning how to sew was on my “must learn” list and Craft Club Kits have made this so much fun and simple. I am honestly and truly so impressed! Cant wait for my next project :)
i loved every step of this kit, from learning the stitches to creating beautiful textured flowers. the step by step videos are helpful and easy to follow, and i felt excited when i learned a new stitch technique and was able to apply it. this sampler is very beginner friendly, i highly recommend!
