There are no verbal instructions, however this video is an easy-to-follow display of how to do ten different ribbon embroidery stitches. It is from HandiWorks. The camera work is bright and sharp and it is easy to follow along as the maker demonstrates the stitching.
I always debate whether or not a video is easier to follow than a written blog post. In this case, the video really helps.
If you are interested in learning more about floral ribbon embroidery or just want to add a couple of flowers to your repertoire, then this video is for you.

Looking for a supplier of Silk Ribbon? We love Etsy for finding hand dyed ribbons as well as imported European silk Embroidery Ribbons. You can see the listings here on Etsy. Why use silk ribbons? While you can use other kinds of ribbon, it’s best to work with silk because It’s lightweight and very fluid and can easily be manipulated into stitches.
