I really enjoyed doing this. The kit was great, had everything and more with clear instructions and all at a reasonable price. Love the quirky sardines and hope they do more unusual themes as I’ve Christmas presents to buy

Very fun and quirky pattern. I found it easy to stitch and I was able to complete it fairly quickly. Perfectly suited to my beginner level status.

Customer photo review of Sardines Tin Embroidery Kit

I really enjoyed making this little embroidery. I have previous experience with embroidery but haven’t done any for years…or maybe decades. I found the instructions quite clear and I think the link to videos would be great for beginners. I appreciated that the kit had extra needles and plenty of thread and that the thread was already put on the number card. I love the quirky design. Thanks for reigniting my love for embroidery!

Taking my time to get the satin stitches right and work around the lettering so it really pops and looks neat.

Customer photo review of Mini Sardines Tin

A fantastic little kit! I am a complete beginner (had never even threaded a needle before) but saw this online and wanted to give it a try to get out of my nightly doom scrolling rut. I’m so pleased with how it’s come out - and I’ve already bought two more kits. Hugely recommended for anyone who is looking for a new hobby, regardless of experience level!

This was I first time I've done any embroidery (I normally do cross stitch) and I really enjoyed it. It's such a fun, colourful design.

Customer photo review of Mini Sardines Tin

This was a really enjoyable first embroidery project. The instructions and video resources were super helpful and I'm now hooked! Can't wait to begin a new project. I found it the perfect way to wind down and keep my hands busy without scrolling my phone at the end of a day. I've had the finished product framed to gift to a friend.

Such a cute design and a fun step up from some of the more simple kits without being intimidating. This is my 4th kit from Stitched up Kits and I have loved them all. The instructions are easy to follow and there is plenty of left over thread to fix up a mistake or make another project.

Mini Sardines Tin

Great for beginners (this was my first patch), and for more advanced stitchers looking for fun patterns.

Sardines Tin Embroidery Kit

Really enjoying my embroidery kit. Straight forward instructions and well packaged and presented.

Great customer service and amazing quality. My friends and I bought the 4 inch sets as absolute beginners and have loved doing them!

Lovely little self-explanatory kit

I bought the sardines tin in a Covid fever the other week when I was unwell and was a little surprised when it turned up as I had no memory. But I love it. It’s adorable. I’ll have to wait until I’m in the right frame of mind to start making it though.

Mini Sardines Tin

I have been enjoying embroidering it whilst on holiday in Cyprus - seemed the perfect place to make it! 😍

Mini Sardines Tin

Have loved all the kits so far, but slightly surprised at how mini the mini was. From the photos they looked bigger. But cool to make. Would love then in the size of the jam and peanut butter. Looking forward to new designs! Will certainly order more. Cathy

Mini Sardines Tin

Great way to start learning. Love it!

Mini Sardines Tin

Love everything about this kit. The colours are fun and make it appealing to use and the design is easy and simple . Perfect guides on how to do different stitches if you are unsure. Makes a great gift for someone too. Totally recommend

Mini Sardines Tin

Enjoyed learning a new craft, instead of watching tv it got my hands and brain working.

Mini Sardines Tin

A beautifully presented kit. As a beginner, I feel very confident with the contents to jump in and start stitching.

Mini Sardines Tin

It took a while for it to arrive. I emailed several times but only got a response once it had been delivered so I feel the customer service could be inproved

Mini Sardines Tin

Store owner replied: Hi Jude, thanks so much for the feedback! We are in the process of onboarding someone to take care of customer service full time, so this should improve :) Steph

What a beautiful gift (i bought myself) next time I will be purchasing for girlfriends. So many designs to choose from, it's hard to choose. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

Looks beautiful in real life. Can’t wait to stitch it.

I love this kit. So cute and easy to make. Loads of thread left over!! Enough to make the pattern several times over.

Great little kit, really enjoying this as a hobby. Great service and design and quality of the kit.

Lovely kit. Was initially sent the incorrect kit, but Steph went over and above to correct the error, and send the correct kit in time for Xmas. It was a much appreciated gift
