These days, you can find a wide variety of petit point kits in craft shops. Centuries ago, this embroidery type became famous as a wedding present from one close female friend to another. The popular motif or themes in that period were angelic faces or religious symbols. One of which is the bleeding heart of Jesus, which was a well-loved motif. Petit point embroidery produces intricate designs. This technique was mostly used for small art objects such as pillboxes, small portraits and elegant handbags a long time ago. With its return to the crafts scene today, petit point kits are made into pictures, tapestries, handbags, or pillow covers. Because the petit point is tiny, some crafters use this technique to make pendants and miniature artworks.
