Delicate Flowers Poppies Bead Embroidery Kit by Abris Art AB-805

Bead a lush bouquet with Delicate Flowers, a bead embroidery kit by Abris Art — white, blush-pink, red and orange poppies and anemones crowd together with small orange butterflies fluttering among them, on a softly painted background. Worked with over 11,300 Preciosa Ornela Czech glass beads in 27 colours.

A little stitcher's folklore: poppies stand for dreams and remembrance, and a butterfly landing near you is said to bring good news or a visit from someone you love. Stitchers say a bouquet that never wilts keeps love and happy memories in the home all year.

Why this kit: if you want a large, spectacular floral, this one is a showpiece — thousands of beads catching the light. It's an absorbing project for beaders with some experience. A stunning gift for flower lovers.

Kit includes: natural art canvas pre-printed with the design, over 11,300 Preciosa Ornela Czech glass beads in 27 colours, a Japanese beading needle, a numbered key chart, and instructions in 8 languages. Beading thread, frame and hoop are not included.

Each bead is sewn onto its colour-marked spot on the printed canvas. Work the flowers one by one, then the butterflies and leaves.

Finished size: 40×27 cm (15.75×10.63 in). Spectacular floral wall art for a living room or dining room.
