Very enjoyable project. I added a felt backing to hide messy work. Pairs beautifully with the blue wren.

Loved how the Kookaburra turned out.
Loved this but did add the circle as I thought it too white, don’t know what anybody thinks about this addition?
I thoroughly enjoyed embroidering the Kookaburra. Easy to follow instructions and such a pretty design.
Was a lovely refresher, after many years of not stitching. Love how everything was sorted and ready to go, very sweet design. Nb. Also loving how your emails address me as ‘Mrs’ … nothing more… just ‘Hey Mrs’ 😅
Great quality kit with easy to follow instructions.
Yes am quite enjoying this, but will undo too many brown feathers on the head, and then might add a border of something round the outside or get a smaller hoop. Thanks.
Easy instructions to follow for a beginner.
The steps were easy to follow. The materials are fabulous quality. It was the perfect activity for a quiet holiday day.
Excited to mount this beauty! I was a little intimidated as this was my first embroidery but the instructions were helpful and the link to the website for washing instructions etc were great!
Love the Kookaburra Looks so cuddley and soft. Really enjoyed doing this one and found it hard to put down because just wanted it finished to see the final results
I loved this kit. The pattern was beautiful and the instructions were great. I changed up the stitches on the breast slightly for something different and I love how it's turned out. My nephew will be thrilled.
Enjoyed making this Kookaburra! Very therapeutic!
I've tried quite a few different kits from different brands, and found this one to be the least comprehensive in terms of instruction provided. A lot was left to guesswork and I kind of did my own thing. Fortunately I've done about 8-9 project already, so I was able to figure it out, but I wouldn't want to do this kit as a beginner. The other kits I've done had instructional videos and a walkthrough of what to do.
Store owner replied: Thanks so much for the feedback, Angie! The Kookaburra kit is marked as Intermediate on our website, so it isn’t one we’d typically recommend as a first embroidery project. Our instructions are intentionally designed to be simple and easy to reference rather than overly prescriptive or lengthy, as we find a lot of our customers prefer stitching without pages of instructions to work through or long videos to watch to get started. That said, I completely understand that everyone has a different preference for the level of guidance they like. We encourage anyone who gets stuck or is unsure about a step to email or message us and we can talk them through it. Thanks again for taking the time to share your feedback ☺️
Great kit! I loved the needle threader included because I've never used one before and it was so helpful. The embroidery turned out almost exactly the same as the pic. Highly recommend.
These kits have everything you need to make a beautiful bird you can hang on your wall. I’m new to this and they are beginner friendly! Just buy it! You will love it!
Lovely kit. Everything included and good quality. Great packaging and the finished piece looks like the picture 😁
Love it!
Love it! Easy to follow and so soothing
I just love Stitched Up Kits embroidery patterns. The Australian themes are gorgeous and the kits are better quality than the embroidery kits you can buy in KMart, creating a nicer finished product. Stitched Up Kits was what first got me into embroidery and sewing as a hobby and now I love it!
Kit did not have needle in it
Store owner replied: Hi Helen! Again we are really sorry this happened and have sent you replacement needles for the kit. If there is anything else we can do please let us know :) Steph
I just wish there was more Australiana to choose from because this kit was exquisite.
This was a present for my daughter’s birthday. She loves it, especially because it’s small enough to put in her bag so she work on it on the train on her way to work.
Super cute image and easy to follow for a beginner. Love the box it comes in as well, I think I’ll be buying a few for gifts!!
Easy to follow and a gorgeous keepsake at the end!
I brought the kookaburra stitch kit for my Mum & she loves it!
Still stitching but so enjoying it!
bought this for my sister for xmas as she loves anything that's native australia, and she has just started embroidery!!
I haven't completed it yet (or even started) but I loved how it came packaged and how quickly it arrived. A lot of care was taken in the presentation and it would make a lovely gift as well :)
Very cute! It’s a gift so once they complete it I’ll add a photo
