| The following 18th Century Stomacher Kits are drawn by hand on 100% linen grounds, using fabric pens to simulate period inking. The majority of surviving 18th c stomachers are worked in silk threads, metallic threads or a combination of both on linen grounds. Extant stomachers embroidered in wool threads are more rare and only a few examples can be found. For the beginning stitcher working with wool is easy and goes quickly. Experienced embroiderers will find satisfaction working in silk, but for the beginner it might be too much of a challenge. All kits are available in either silk or wool. The designs have been inspired by extant examples in museums and private collections and created by Samantha Larkin. Kits include all threads, hand drawn design on linen ground, instructions and embroidery needles. | |||||||||||||
