How to Turn Kids Artwork into Embroidery

January 20, 2021 by Claudia Porter Leave a Comment

As a mother I can tell you that I have a bin full of artwork that my child has done over the years.  It’s hard for me to throw any of it out, even after many years.  I also have to admit that a couple of drawings are my favorites.  That is why I got so excited when I saw this tutorial from The Kim Six Fix.  I immediately knew I would give it a try.

What a lovely way to preserve a special creation.  You could make them for yourself or someone else special.

Surprisingly, it’s an easy process.  There are only a few tools needed and they include a washable fabric marker, an embroidery needle, a hoop, and embroidery floss.  The only other thing you need is a drawing from your child.  That’s it, easy peasy!

The blogger shows off two sweet creations and all of the instructions are in a video tutorial that can be found in the article.

Any grandparent of family friend would love to get a gift like this.

You can find the tutorial here: Turn Kids Artwork Into Embroidery Designs
