DIY block printed stitching: bees & blooms needle book I made myself one of

I made myself one of these journals to be my "greenhouse journal" and loved it so much I made a small collection for my shop

and taped little bits of thread and fabric for color exploration

They are stitched in coral and black thread with mirror images on both sides

In my knitting bag

lavender/gray: wattle & iron

DIY block printed stitching: bees & blooms needle book I made myself one ofThis kit includes a hand carved block printed image of bees & blooms on a 5 x 7" piece of tea dyed organic cotton hemp fabric, [5] colors of embroidery floss, a hand sewing needle, a guide to basic stitches, and photo inspiration. The block printed image is like a page in a coloring book, and the needle and thread is like your pen. Consider stitching this project without a plan, as if you are doodling. Be mindful of color balance and white space,
