Need a break from learning? Take out their embroidery kit for engaging the brain in a different way. Studies have found that the repetitive motion of stitching, triggers the parasympathetic nervous system, which quiets the natural fight or flight response to stress. Concentrating on a creative project helps take a person’s mind off a certain source of stress and physically calm down. The sense of accomplishment can boost mental health and improve our immune system, as relief from the pressure of multitasking is replaced by focusing on one thing. 

Our kits are super easy to complete, they work just like paint-by-numbers kits only you are painting with a needle rather than a paint brush. Follow the Color Block Stitching System for easy stitching:
-Color blocks tell you what color thread to use in that section
-Guiding stitches show you which direction to stitch and how long the stitch should be
-These techniques allow a stitcher to complete beautiful artwork with ease!

Each kit includes a detailed pattern booklet that includes a Color Blocking Map of the American Flag and step-by-step photographed instructions for each technique used in the pattern. You will also receive a fabric piece with a beautiful image of the American Flag and guiding stitches overlaying it. With these tools everyone, both beginners and advanced stitchers, can complete a kit from Liberty Stitching with grace!
