About this design
★★★★★ A London mews with Big Ben at the end of the street
An atmospheric London mews street: a row of elegant cream-coloured townhouses with blue and black front doors, wrought-iron lanterns, climbing roses, and flower boxes. At the end of the cobblestone square, the face of Big Ben towers above the chimneys—London at its most charming and quintessentially English.
Why this cross-stitch kit?
The muted beige tones of the townhouses, the pink and green hues of the flowers, and the accent of the blue-grey roofs create a distinguished, classic colour palette. With 22 yarn colours, you'll achieve refined details in the facades, front doors, and flower boxes—a relaxing project for anyone who loves British aesthetics.
Who is this embroidery kit for?
A beloved gift for England-lovers, London fans, and those who frequently travel to the United Kingdom. Also great for homesick expats, or as a housewarming gift for those who want a London corner in their home. And, of course, for yourself—embroidering with a cup of tea, very British.
What's included in this cross-stitch kit?
- Pre-printed 11CT embroidery canvas — symbols and colour numbers are already on the canvas, so no counting required
- 22 colours of premium eco-cotton thread (Huacan) — stronger and more colourfast than standard thread, less prone to breaking
- Two gold-plated cross-stitch needles in a handy protective case
- Step-by-step instructions in Dutch, also suitable for beginners
- Printed symbol overview for reference during embroidery
Which size is right for me?
20×30 cm is a nice travel souvenir for anyone who has just returned from a London trip. 40×50 cm (our most popular size) beautifully showcases the mews, lanterns, and Big Ben in the hallway or reading nook. From 60×80 cm, it becomes a true conversation piece with impressive detailing.
Please note: the physical kit is supplied in 30×40, 40×50, or 50×70 cm. Other sizes are received as a digital pattern (PDF download).

Pre-printed: The symbols and colours are on the fabric. You can see straight away where each stitch goes and work your way through colour by colour.
Counted pattern: You stitch on blank fabric and follow the pattern supplied. A traditional way of cross stitching that takes a little more focus. The counted pattern comes in fewer sizes.
Fabric: 11CT as standard (11 stitches per 2.54 cm). With the upgrade to 14CT, the stitches are smaller and you see more detail.
I’ve never done embroidery before. Will I manage?
Yes. Just choose pre-printed: the symbols and colours are already on the fabric, so there’s no counting. The instructions (in Dutch) explain step by step how to make a cross stitch.
What’s the difference between 11CT and 14CT?
CT stands for the number of stitches per 2.54 cm. 11CT is standard: larger stitches, easy to see. On 14CT the stitches are smaller, so you see more detail in things like faces and fur.
When will my kit arrive?
We make your kit in 5–7 working days, then it’s with you in 2–4 working days. Shipping is always free, with tracking.
You can pay securely with iDEAL, Klarna, Bancontact, Visa, Mastercard or PayPal.
Can I return it?
You have a 14-day cooling-off period. During that time, you can send the kit back in its original condition.
We’ll always put it right. Something damaged or missing, or did we make a mistake? Email a photo to info@stitchistudio.com.
Can I give it as a gift?
Of course. At checkout, enter the recipient’s address.
What are the instructions like?
Every kit includes step-by-step instructions in Dutch: how to read the symbols, make your first cross stitch and start and finish neatly.
How do I wash my embroidery?
- Hand wash your embroidery in lukewarm water (30 °C max.) with a little mild soap.
- Don’t wring: press the water out between two towels.
- Leave it to dry flat, out of direct sunlight.
- Iron the back, on a soft towel, to keep the stitches nice and plump.
