Bluebird Sampler by Jessica Long Embroidery is a charming way to learn hand embroidery while creating a finished piece you'll actually want to display.
Designed specifically for beginners, the sampler teaches and provides practice with 15 different hand embroidery stitches. Instead of working through disconnected practice lines, you'll use those stitches to build a sweet bluebird design, learning how different techniques can create texture, pattern, and detail within a complete piece of embroidery.
The design is printed directly onto light pink cotton fabric, so there's no need to trace or transfer the pattern before beginning. The printed guidelines are permanent and become part of the finished design.
Along with the printed instructions and Jessica Long's Beginner Guide, the kit includes access to an online video tutorial, giving new stitchers another resource for seeing the techniques in action.
DMC cotton embroidery floss comes organized on a thread card, and a 4-inch embroidery hoop and needles are included. It's an approachable first project for someone curious about hand embroidery and a useful stitch refresher for more experienced crafters.

Learn 15 Embroidery Stitches
Bluebird Sampler is designed as a true skill-building project. As you work through the bird, you'll learn and practice 15 easy hand embroidery stitches, seeing how different stitches can be used creatively within a single design.
The combination of printed instructions and video guidance makes it particularly well suited to someone learning independently at home.
Skill Level
Beginner
No previous hand embroidery experience is required. The permanently printed design eliminates pattern transfer, while the Beginner Guide and online tutorial provide additional support as you learn.
It's also a thoughtful gift for someone who has expressed an interest in embroidery but doesn't yet have the tools or experience to know where to begin.
