Hi Mary,
Go to “thumbelina.com” It’s a Needlework shop based in California. The website has a Danish Handcraft Guild heading in the upper area of the website. See if it helps. :)

I saw the same site but Bermuda beat me to it. Says it's the largest Danish community in the USA - in California no less.

MaryD, I'm not sure I understand your question...when you say "supplier for", do you mean a "seller for" their books? Amazon came up with the Thumbelina reference, if that's what you're looking for. I thought you might have meant a physical guild membership. :)

Very interesting...I always learn so much looking up stuff for others! Is your friend interested in designing?
I also got several references to libraries, so your friend might start a search in her local library. I like seeing books before I order online. :)

My friend is also your friend VCESS......Texas Stitcher, and since she is so busy at the moment so I’m giving a helping 🤚 for finding a shop in the US that sells this particular kit. Burmuda has found her a good DHG site but I can’t find the wanted kit on it. We shall preserver !

Thank you Le- Anne and Bermuda. I couldn’t find the kit I was looking for but I’ll try that site again and see if I can. Your mail came through just as I was going to bed Burmuda so my searching on the site was a bit fuzzy. It’s a really good site if you’re into Danish embroidery.

MaryD, I can't find any kits offered here...some in UK, but not here. The only thing I can find are books and pamphlets...the one site that I found is out of business. :)
