Clara's Garden folk embroidery kit features an ornate border reminiscent of embroidery designs influenced by Venetian textiles in the mid-1700s and worked throughout the Cyclades, a group of Greek islands in the Aegean sea.

Reimagined in a cheerful palette of coral, alizarin, soft yellow, and green with turquoise accents, this makes a lovely heirloom.
