Introducing our ✨NEW ✨DIY embroidery tote bag kit, featuring sunny holiday illustrations. Bring sunshine, flip flops, palm trees, shells, ice creams and other travel-themed icons to life with colourful embroidery!
Skill level: 🪡 Developing Beginner (use back stitch or learn some new stitches)
Time to complete: 🕓 2–20 hours (still looks great with only 1 or 2 icons stitched!)
Covered with lovely hand-drawn holiday illustrations, our tote already looks beautiful even without any extra stitches. Perfect as a beach bag and just as useful for grocery shopping and everyday use.
Part embroidery kit, part practical accessory - this bag was created from the idea that your needlework projects should not be hidden away in a drawer. Stitch each icon at your own pace and watch your bag slowly flourish into a personalised piece of wearable art.
This is a great-sized bag with generous faux suede outer pockets - perfect for keeping sunglasses and suncream handy, or for carrying bottles to the pool.
