The Byzantine Beasts folk embroidery kit is a charming menagerie of animals inspired by Byzantine and Greek folk art, and each animal sits atop a traditional folk embroidery border. Worked in cheery shades of turquoise, teal, green, terra cotta, and yellow, this design can be finished as a child’s quiet book or as a wall hanging. Each animal can also be worked independently for smaller projects such as pincushions, stuffed toys, or as mini framed art!
