Turn Sketches Into Embroidery Patterns

September 21, 2021 by Claudia Porter Leave a Comment

Amy, over on Amy Loves to Sew, brings us another lovely how to tutorial.  This time it is how to turn sketches into embroidery motifs.  What a wonderful process!

Whether you like to doodle, or your child is constantly drawing masterpieces, you will learn how to transfer these works of art onto canvas and then embroider them.  A project like this is completely unique and will be a keepsake for years to come.

I know that I have a number of drawings that my daughter made over the years that this technique would be perfect for.

No special tools are needed to do this and the article also includes some tips for adding some embellishments to your canvas.  Those are always a nice way to change up the look of a flat canvas and add some fun bling to it.
