5 Types of Embroidery

May 20, by Claudia Porter. Leave a Comment

Are you new to hand embroidery?  Here is a helpful beginner’s guide to various types of it from the Embroiderers’ Guild of America.

This article includes a photo example of each type, a description of what it is, and a section on its history.  What a wonderful introduction to the various types of embroidery.

Which one is your favorite?  It is hard for me to choose, but I think I have to say that I love the stumpwork.  I think it adds such wonderful dimension to projects.

You can find this helpful guide here: The Beginner’s Guide to Five Types of Embroidery
