Published 01 July 2022 by Collins234

Crafting is a kind of superfood for the mind. Not only does it improve fine motor skills and calm the nervous system, crafting creates opportunities for deep connection with others. Whichever way you cut it, crafting is a great way to improve your health. So, what are you waiting for?

Here are three ways to begin your adventures in textile art with the help of the experts at Morris & Sons:

Try tapestry
Delving into the rich history of tapestry is easy with Morris & Sons’ ready-made kits. You don’t need any tapestry or embroidery experience to start one of these beautiful projects, just a little curiosity and time. The Ehrman cushion collection comes in a wide range of designs and uses high-quality natural canvas and wool thread to create your masterpiece. They make fabulous statement pieces in your home, and special gifts for those close to your heart.
Start small
Cross-stitch is a perfect place to start if you’re a newcomer to the world of textile art. It’s also a style that can be applied to almost any surface or project, from clothing to toys and homewares. These small cross-stitch kits make adorable decorations for your Christmas tree or wall and can be completed in a weekend.
Book yourself in
Looking for an entire winter’s worth of projects? Morris & Sons stocks a range of expert craft books that help you expand your skills as you go.
