This set was introduced in 1992 and retired in 2001. It associated with the book, Happy Birthday, Felicity!
PC description: Felicity's stitching certainly improved once she got her own needlework frame. The sampler kit contains needle and thread to stitch a colorful bird, vines, flowers, and the words Faithful Friends Forever Be. There are even two thimbles - a tiny one for Felicity and one for you, too! Open the storage boxes on the base of the frame and tuck the supplies inside when her lesson is through.
This set included a needlework frame, preprinted sampler muslin, instruction booklet, needle, coloured threads, doll and girl thimbles. I've never tried to do the sampler and have only used the set for display, either on the clothes press or in front of Felicity so it looks like she's working on it. A+
The needlework frame is made of dark wood and matches Felicity's furniture. It has the frame and embroidery hoop with a spool for thread under the hoop and storage boxes with hinged lids at either end.
The sampler muslin has the pattern printed on it for easy stitching. Since I know my skills aren't up to the challenge I've left mine in the plastic it came in to keep it from getting dirty and display it in the hoop.
The instruction booklet I'll have to get out and look at to give a review, I know I've looked at it but I can't for the life of me remember anything about it.
The needle is a needle and the threads are basic embroidery floss in the colours needed to make the sampler and the girl thimble I've never bothered to unwrap since there is no way it will fit me.
The doll thimble is an adorable miniature thimble that actually fits on Felicity's finger.
