Wedding embroidery kit

A wedding promise

A wedding promise

I am looking for someone to stitch the above sampler for me.

I bought an embroidery kit which someone kindly made up for me but when it came to the personalisation there was a problem.

They unpicked the metal thread which left black pin marks on the material. Then they redid the personalisation with a different coloured thread which, when washed, left yellow marks all over.

Unfortunately, because this is a sampler to go on a wedding kneeler it was a complete disaster.

I have purchased another kit and wonder if there is anyone out there that could sew this kit by the end of June at the very latest, as I have to get it back and get it made into a cushion/kneeler for a July wedding.

The size of the finished design is approximately 17.5 cms square and the stitches involved are

Satin,
buttonhole,
stem stitch,
stem stitch filled,
satin stitch padded,
bullion knot,
spiderweb,
straight stitch,
colonial knot,
back stitch whipped
and detached chain stitch

There are only two colours involved, Ecru and Gold Metallic Thread.

If anyone can help me please can you contact Carol who will pass on your details.

Ideas of cost and time-scale would be extremely useful.

Please note the picture does not show the correct personalisation - if anyone is able to sew this for me I will let them have the bride and grooms name and the date of the wedding.

Thank you.
