Stash Enhancement: Bateau Bayeux

It's so much fun to get a squishy package! The kit for my new online needlework class came in the mail today!  And oh, it's nice. 

The threads are crewel wools hand dyed by Renaissance Dyeing in a rich brown, navy, light blue and gold.   They are incredibly soft to the touch, and I'm really looking forward to seeing how they will stitch up.  The design is silk screened onto a nice linen (I am assuming) ground in a pale gold ink and even two #5 crewel needles are included. 

The whole thing came in a zip bag with a heavy cardstock photo of the project in full color (almost life sized!) and on the back, some close ups of details of the stitching and interesting facts about the Norman invasion of England.
