Needlework

[Dunroamin]

Hoping someone may be able to help me? Before I lose the ability i would love to embroider a traditional willow pattern. I am looking specifically for an embroidery kit with the design already printed on a plate sized cloth. My brain will not entertain cross stich or counted anything. This is a long shot, but hopefully there may be someone out there ...............

HEre is one I already did to give an idea of the concept

I have been looking and have not found anything better than has already been found but I did find this for teachers of young children, @Dunroamin

'Two birds flying high,
A Chinese vessel, sailing by.
A bridge with three men, sometimes four,
A willow tree, hanging o'er.
A Chinese temple, there it stands,
Built upon the river sands.
An apple tree, with apples on,
A crooked fence to end my song.'

Problem now solved. OH has downloaded a pdf of a willowpattern plate. This will (apparently) be printed directly onto something called print and stitch attached to the material. This will then be peeled off and the design is on the material which I can then embroider. The residual markings are then dissolved in water. I hope this makes sense.

Sounds good!👍

Now we will all be looking forward to seeing the finished article.

Well done your OH

Not sure if they do Willow Pattern, but Jolly Red https://www.jollyred.co.uk/flowers-and-birds/ have lovel designs that you do crewel styel with wools on a printed design. I cannot get on with counted cross!
Avlea - https://www.avleaembroidery.com/shop have lovely designs, some in blue and white, which are printed on the canvas.

From a fellow stitcher!

One I made earlier, from a Jolly Red kit.
They also do backing/framing/making up. Not cheap, but very good
