These five different Bug designs, by Fiona Wemyss, consist of a honeycomb trellis and border and one of five different bugs within each honeycomb cell. It is stitched in tent stitch with a single strand of tapestry wool. The finished design size is 28cm/11” square.

If you would prefer to stitch a piece with all five bugs scattered within the honeycomb cells throughout, rather than an individual bug, a thumbnail image of the Mixed Bugs design, shown as a made up cushion, is here, but please go to the Mixed Bugs to purchase the kit.

We always recommend using a frame when stitching a tent stitch piece, it makes following the charts easier and minimises distortion. We like to use Elbesee Universal frames, they are simple to put together and you attach the canvas to the frame with either drawing pins or staples. We are giving you the option of purchasing a kit with or without a frame (if you do choose to select the frame a pack of drawing pins will be included). These Universal Frames can be reused again and again.
