About this design
★★★★★ The classic stork delivers a new baby among wildflowers
A stately white stork carries a sleeping baby in a blue swaddle, wading through a field of daisies, cornflowers, and lavender. A timeless symbol of birth and new life — perfect as a classic baby gift or birth announcement keepsake.
Why choose this cross-stitch kit?
The iconic black and white of the stork combines beautifully with the soft blue of the swaddle and the rich wildflower wreath at its feet — purple, yellow, pink, and fresh green. With 22 yarn colors, this is a detailed design that requires attention and patience — ideal for embroiderers who love a true statement piece.
Who is this embroidery kit for?
A timeless baby shower gift or newborn gift for new parents and grandparents, and a symbolic present for those who want to celebrate the birth of a child. Classic, recognizable, and enduringly beautiful — still heartwarming to look at generations later.
What's included in this cross-stitch kit?
- Pre-printed 11CT embroidery canvas — symbols and color numbers are already on the canvas, so no counting is needed
- 22 colors of premium eco-cotton yarn (Huacan) — stronger and more colorfast than standard yarn, less prone to breaking
- Two gold-plated cross-stitch needles in a convenient protective sleeve
- Step-by-step guide in Dutch, also suitable for beginners
- Printed symbol overview as a reference during embroidery
Which size is right for me?
Our smallest size (20×30 cm) is suitable as a small, delicate gift to combine with a birth announcement card, while 40×50 cm (our most popular size) makes a beautiful size for framing above the baby's corner. Larger sizes (from 60×80 cm) become impressive statement pieces — perfect for keeping as a lasting family heirloom.
Please note: the physical kit comes in 30×40, 40×50 or 50×70 cm. Other sizes are provided as a digital pattern (PDF download) — handy if you already have canvas, yarn, and needles at home.

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.
