The amazing health benefits of practicing embroidery

  • Lowers blood pressure

    Embroidery calms the nervous system, promotes relaxation, and contributes to lower blood pressure, reducing stress for improved well-being.

  • Regulates breath

    Engaging in embroidery encourages mindful, rhythmic stitching, promoting focused breathing patterns that can induce a sense of calm and relaxation.

  • Calms nervous system

    Embroidery, with its repetitive and rhythmic hand movements, engages the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation and reducing stress levels.

  • Form deep social bonds

    Our online community fosters connection through a shared creative space, encouraging communication and supporting the exchange of ideas, nurturing deep social bonds among members.

Rabbits Kit

This is my second Rabbits kit. I am using one kit to practice the basic stitches as this is first time embroidery for me. I am finding the instructions very useful and also the video invaluable.

Beautiful design and great instructions

This was my first kit from The Crewel Work Company. I love the composition. The instructions were clear and walked me through some stitching that I thought would be beyond my abilities. The kit arrived promptly and was beautifully packaged.
