String Art Teacher Appreciation Cards
STRING ART TEACHER CARDS: 24 PRINTABLE PIERCE AND STITCH PATTERNS
A thank-you card kids can make themselves! Print a card front, pierce the dots and stitch a bright apple, pencil, chalkboard or school bus with embroidery floss. Every design comes with a numbered piercing template and a step-by-step stitch map, so kids always know where to go next. Most designs are Beginner level and take one sitting.
Made for kids and grown-ups together: kids about 8 and up can do the stitching, and a grown-up does the piercing.
