✨ New In: Folk Embroidery Kits from Avlea
Your next obsession just dropped. We met the sweet designer of Avlea Folk Embroidery at H&H a few weeks ago, and couldn't resist her designs. Meet Krista West, she does a monthly "Floss Tube" where she talks all things stitching:
If you’ve been craving a project that’s equal parts soothing, satisfying, and seriously stunning — allow us to introduce your new favorite craft: folk embroidery.
We’re now carrying Avlea Folk Embroidery kits at homesewn, and trust us, these babies are next-level. Traditional or modern? You decide.
What’s Inside the Kits?
Each kit includes everything you need to get started — no guesswork, no endless shopping lists:
High-quality cloth
Gorgeous, richly-colored threads
A full-color pattern chart
Easy-to-follow instructions
Basically? It’s grab-and-go stitching perfection. Just add scissors and a little “me time.”
Why We’re Obsessed
Avlea’s designs are inspired by traditional Mediterranean folk motifs — think Greek islands, Balkan villages, and ancient patterns with a fresh, modern vibe. The result is art that feels both timeless and right at home in your space today.
Plus, folk embroidery is the kind of craft that makes you slow down. Whether you’re a seasoned stitcher or totally new to it, this is the mindful, meditative hobby you didn’t know you were missing.
But Wait... What Do I Do With It?
We hear you — and guess what? Avlea’s got your back there, too.
She’s created a ton of how-to videos and blog posts that show you:
-
How to get started (no embroidery experience needed!)
-
Finishing techniques (hello, clean backs and crisp hoops)
-
Creative ideas for displaying or gifting your finished piece
Frame it. Turn it into a pillow. Use it in a patchwork. Or just proudly hang it on the wall and admire your work. 🧡
