KIT to make Reclining Shepherdess Picture 

Natural brown linen canvas (approx 20 ct), vegetable dyed worsted yarn & vegetable dyed silk thread. 
Needlework area: approx 18 x 22 inches 

Here's your chance to make an historically accurate textile reproduction yourself! The kit includes everything you need to work a traditional tent stitch picture using 18th century methods. The work is not difficult, but working the entire picture takes many hours. Pictures like this were typically made by girls in their mid teens during the 18th century--building both their skill with a needle and their perseverance.

If you prefer us to do the work, we have a finished Shepherdess picture for sale in our Gallery.
