Win a modern embroidery starter kit, worth $85
19 Aug 2021
Embroidery kits are becoming more and more trendy in the stitching world, and there’s many good reasons why that is so.
They are perfect for beginners because they have everything to complete your first embroidery project including skeins of floss, fabric and detailed instructions.
They are fabulous for advanced stitchers as well because even though we know how to do most of the stitches, these kits come with exciting goodies that we probably don’t already own, and are unique to each seller.
If you’ve been eyeing an embroidery kit on Etsy, you know that there’s many options available and some of them can get fairly expensive.
There’s a lot of thought, care and materials included in these kits so I believe the price is justified, but doing a thorough research to find the perfect kit for your needs is a must if you want to spend your money well.
It is through this research where I found Sarah’s shop,

Currently my favorite stitch palette is Soft Blue Light
Wow! I’m new to the site and haven’t had a change to peruse yet. I love that your palettes are available online to help those of us new to embroidery (particularly design) to choose what colors we’re actually “seeing” in a photo! That is one of the biggest “intimidations” I’ve needed to overcome in designing a pattern. I’d love to do silk shading embroidery someday, but feel overwhelmed with all the options. What I’ve seen on your website so far is… IT’S FABULOUS! THANK YOU!
My favorite palette that was recently posted is Lago Di Dobbiaco. I love the mountains and the colors curated for this palette are truly beautiful.
Purple Ombre

This is a lovely mysterious palette, inviting exploration of creative ideas!
I can not get enough of the pink jellyfish!
This is really hard to do because the palette depends on my mood. But I would guess woodsy, with some fall accents.
“I See A Blue Butterfly” is the most gorgeous and inspiring Stitch Palette I’ve collected on my Pinterest page. I look forward to new palettes in my inbox every Monday.
I See a Blue Butterfly
Spring Bouquet of Flowers
I am not good with choosing colours so I love stitch palettes. My favourites and the seasons palettes.
0279 forest road I absolutely love!
I love a lot of them, but I think my favorite is #SPA0698 Blue And Green Translucent Leaves.
My heart’s desire is for all things lilac through to royal violet/ purple.
I don’t have a favorite stitch palette…I don’t think. I depends on the project for me. I love coming up with new projects that make me experiment with color!
Hi! My favorite stitch palette at this time is Magical Istanbul. With some green added, it would make a gorgeous field of flowers!
Famished for Fruit
The kit is beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing. I shared on Facebook and pinterest
https://stitchpalettes.com/category/color/blue is great
I love the autumn tones
The colours are fabulous.

Oh man, how can you just pick one favorite??! My current favorite is Summer Girl because man am I longing for the beach! That’s my happy place and that palette just takes me right there. So gorgeous!
This has been a fave of mine for a long time now! Both the picture and the pallette! https://stitchpalettes.com/palette/stardust-spa0534/
What a nice way to introduce the art of embroidery, or even a sweet way to re-enter the craft after some time away
Hummingbird Close-Up
Hummingbird Close-Up is perfect for now. We have so many Hummingbirds right now getting ready for their long migration
Picking a favourite palette is like picking a favourite child. I love them all. If pressed, anything with purple is a real winner. I quite like SPA0514, Smoke in the Water, from December 2020.
Favorite Stitch Palette: Reddish in CloseUp. It is vibrant and alive. Can use this color mix in many projects. Especially like it for a quilting project. Each color can be expanded in it’s range to create diversity and interest .
SPA0507 ( San Francisco) is my favorite– love those warm, spicy colors!
My favorite Stitch Palette is “Blue and Purple Mosaic”. I’m using it presently on a SAL with Peppermint Purple.
It’s really hard to choose a favorite. They change with the season, the project, my mood . . . If I had to choose one that stands out it is Chocolate Chip. I acquired a puppy that looks just like the photo the week this palette was released!
SPA0737 Proud Hummingbird (7/30) is my favorite, but honestly I love many of them. I particularly like SPA0737 because of the beautiful colors depicted, but also because I can honestly envision myself trying to stitch that hummingbird. In fact, that’s why I’ve saved this one because I am contemplating how to make a pattern from this particular subject and using these colors, or whether I should forget the pattern and just start making the bird. I really enjoy looking at the palettes you create for the various pictures, and I often marvel at the colors you find.
My favourite is Auburn Autumn.
My dad used to embroider to relieve stress, he taught me how to do a few basic stitches but it has been years. Would live to learn again. The sweet berries palette is my favorite.
My favorite stitchpalette? You might as well ask who my favorite child is! It’s easier to say I like the Autumn color palettes, like Walking in the City, A Basket Full of Flowers, Brown Wood Branch and Cozy in Green. Basically anything with green, bronze and gold!
My favorite palette is Brown & Yellow Butterfly, NO. SPA0760. A thistle will always grab my attention, as well as butterflies.
Stylish Dogs
Fuzzy peach would match so beautifully with the colours I plan on painting my hallway! Always wanted to try embroidery but too scared!
i’d love to win the fuzzy peach one, it looks gorgeous !
My favourite palete is “On a sandy beach”.
This looks like an amazing kit and I would love to do it! My favourite palette is Blue And Purple Mosaic NO. SPA0522
On a Sunny Beach is so beautiful!!! I want to start embroidery and this would be a perfect way to dip in! Great giveaway and I’d love to win!!
How did I not know about this before!!!! It is amazing!
Right now, favorites are Purple Succulents and Emerald Leaves!
I am sooo bad at color matching/complementing that I will now be on here for every new project I do. Obviously, I will also need to buy more floss. Obviously…
Haha welcome Erin to my website! We already have one thing in common, we both need more floss!!
I quite like flamingo in green pond and out of the kit I like fuzzy peach.
Dreams of Contrast, she looks like my friend Ash
Dreams of Contrast
Raindrops
Red Ladder With Flowers is my favourite collection.
My favourite from the kit palettes it would be Sweet Berries.
Thank you for a chance to win:-)

Raindrops – Easy to pick because I’m a lover of all purple and mauve shades.
Raindrops is one of my favourites, I’m a lover of all purple shades… so hard to pick just one lol
My favourite stitch pallette is ‘ A sign of love ‘ because I loveeee dogs and flowers so that is all mixed into one ❤️❤️
The Sweet Berries collection is my favourite

Fig and thyme cocktail is my favorite!!

is Lovely! My current favorite.
Thx for the chance at the embroidery kit!
It is so hard to chose, specially to a ♎️ person. But, the favorite was Madagascar Multicolor – SPA245
Thanks!
The Hummingbird Close-up is so pretty, just like the cute little hummers that zip around my back yard! I love stitch palettes, I recently used a combination to choose colors for a sampler piece that was originally done in very drab 70s colors
Thanks for the opportunity to win the embroidery kit!

How do I pick a favorite from so many amazing choices?!?! Today I’ll say Bali Blues, but it could so easily be many others!!
I also shared in fb (I’m Kimberley Jane on there) and my Insta that I’ve tagged u in that post also. Thanks
The winter wonders palettes are stunning
Autumn Sunset is my favorite palette.
I love all the warm palettes but I did choose red muffin deliciousness as a basis for my Smoyg embroidery. Thank you
There are so many palettes I love, I can’t pick a favorite! I’m partial to greens, blues, and purples.
I love SPA0176 Sliced Greens
Dark purple flower
Also, I shared your post on my FB page under Shawna Zimmerman Gregg
Thank you Shawna so much, it truly means a lot ♥!
My favorite is Purple Cityscape Near Water! So pretty & the colors are a multi-use palette.
My favorite palette is Black Bear. I love the images where you use tones of the same color, and this one particularly appeals because I’m a sucker for grayscale pieces. I also love how you link similar images to each post, so we can build off of the original palette and flesh out the colors and shades we want to use. Thank you for that. I also enjoy your pieces with people in it, as it helps with skin tones!
Thank you so much Shawna for your kind words, I really appreciate you shared your thoughts with me and am very glad that you find the Similar Palettes feature useful!
My favorite stitch palette is 0560–omgosh it’s so beautiful, but also hard to decide just one!
“Tales of Greens and Reds”
Colors are so much fun! I’d say my fave palette is Purple Crocus!
What a fun contest ! My favorite stitch palette is from May 17, 2021, “Vibrant Red Dress”
I think my favorite stitch palette is “Golden Hour on the Beach” I’ve used in one of my large quakers and it came out so BEAUTIFUL ❤️
I love the walk in the city pallet no. 4
I love the ones that feature the ocean and it’s many moods. ‘Ocean and sand’ is a current choice. One of my favorite color schemes seem to be blues and browns which the ocean gives me in profusion!!
One of my favourite palletes is Snowy Mountain Pines
I’m a sucker for oranges and earth tones, so Fishing at Sunset and Car Trail Lights at Sunset really drew me in.
Although Red Muffin Deliciousness is just scrumptious! 😉
Love the one from Eight Point Lake in Michigan.
White Chocolate Demitasse
If I could only choose one palette as my favourite, it would probably be Purple Hydrangeas. Really though, it’s so hard to choose just one!
Fig And Thyme Cocktail is awesome! But to be honest, my favorite changes with my mood and having so many to pick from is a real treasure!
Oh so many choices, I love all the vibrant filters, but so far my fave is Vibrant Red Dress
Hummingbird close-up
I find myself loving all the palettes that are connected to nature in the picture — like the recent Hummingbird Close Up
I love the fig and thyme cocktail! Such a gorgeous pallet!
All the palettes are just wonderful, but the Fig and Thyme Cocktail is a favorite; the colors look and feel light and airy – a great combination. When I saw the palette at first I was imagining what I could stitch with these colors.
DMC 312. I like the color because it’s just one of my favorite colors lol! Especially the color pallets for the peacocks! I do t remember if it’s one of the colors but I am slowly but surely making one now for my nieces is denim jacket.
Bonjour,
I especially like autumn themes and especially those like :
Between The Mountains
A Basket Full Of Flowers
Brown Wood Branch
Thanks Catherine, these are about to get very relevant in the next few months! ♥
What a lovely giveaway. I love the colour palette sweet berries, although it’s difficult to choose because they’re all beautiful
My favorite is the Tales of Greens and Reds! Teal is one of my favorite colors and I love dark witchy colors!
An excellent choice Lauren, that’s a good one!
Great Minds!!
Hard to choose but I really love the Purple Crocus Flowers palette !
I honestly cannot answer. I love them all. I do seem to be attracted to autumn and winter palettes.
I can certainly relate to that! It’s quite difficult even for me to choose one as well 😀
I love the Stardust Stitch Palate. I use these colors frequently in my needlepoint particularly in my counted needlepoint where I can play with the colors.
