Tutorial: Basic embroidery project

October 26, 2011 by Denise Felton Leave a Comment

Allison of little lovelies guest posts a tutorial on 30days that a beginner can embrace. She shows how to do the basic backstitch–the only stitch needed for this piece. Then she covers creating a simple pattern and mounting and framing the finished work. My favorite part of the whole thing: the concept of stitching a sweetheart carving on a woodgrain fabric. Brilliant! Go to the tutorial.
