Alphabet Seaside
£38.50 – £77.00
Alphabet Seaside tapestry kit captures the fun, activity, and atmosphere of the seaside. There’s a lighthouse in the harbour, a sailing boat bobbing on the waves, and a fishing trawler heading back with its catch. A puffin sits on a clifftop, dogs play ball on the sand in front of colourful beach huts, while a cat on a cushion gazes longingly at framed pictures of fish.
Alphabet Seaside is a super seaside tapestry to stitch for a child, or to make for your beach hut or seaside home/retreat.
Design Size Printed Canvas area: 14″ x 17″ (36cm x 43cm), 10 holes per inch canvas.

Choosing and using a Tapestry Frame
Why use a frame? A tapestry frame is not essential but using one will help to keep your canvas straight and maintain even tension as you stitch. With your canvas on a frame, it's easy to pick it up and resume stitching the following day or after a break.
Which size is best for this kit? We stock a range of British made no-sew tapestry clip frames which take only a few minutes to assemble. For Alphabet Seaside, we recommend a 24" frame, either a CF249 or a CF2412. This allows for the extra blank canvas at the sides of the printed area. See all our tapestry clip frames in our Frames and Accessories category.
Another benefit of using a clip frame The canvas is attached by sturdy clips which fit snugly into grooves in the top and bottom bars. The clips give you the freedom to temporarily remove your canvas and switch to another project if necessary.
