Covered with lovely hand-drawn illustrations of 11 common British birds, our pouch already looks beautiful without any extra stitches! Inspired by the idea that your needlework projects should not be stuck in a drawer, add colour to each bird one by one, and over time your pouch flourishes into your own embroidered work of art.
Get playful with different thread colours and embroidery stitches, to cover each bird in feathers. Our easy to follow video tutorials will walk you through each bird, so even if you're a determined beginner we will help you create your own gorgeous embroidered pouch.
