I already had a craft crush on Kathy Shaw of Shawkl. But now it’s full-blown true love. How generous can one stitcher be! Kathy had to put together a basic stitch guide for silk-ribbon embroidery to support her students, so she decided to make it available free to all of her blog visitors. This is a treasure. Please respect Kathy’s wishes about its use. Go to her blog post to download the file.
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.
