Home Sweet Home

Home Sweet Home is a lovely tapestry kit to stitch for yourself or to make as a handmade gift for friends or family members celebrating moving to a new home.

With its central house, its hearts and flowers border, lucky horse shoe and teapot and cups, the design is full of familiar and welcoming imagery. Once stitched, you can frame your  tapestry as a picture or use it as the centre of a larger cushion.

As it's not too big, Home Sweet Home will find a space in even in the most bijou residence!

Choosing  a Tapestry Frame

A tapestry frame is not essential, but dusing one can help to prevent your work going out of shape and makes it easy to resume stitching the next day or after a break. We stock a good range of British made no-sew tapestry clip frames which take only a few minutes to assemble. As the canvas is attached by easy clips, the frames allow you to swap between projects if necessary.

For Home Sweet Home, we recommend either a CF189 frame, or choose a CF219 or CF249 frame if you might stitch something larger in the future. A 12" frame will be a bit of a squeeze. See all our frames here in our Tapestry Frames and Accessories category.
