Things that are embroidered adds such a unique and personal touch to clothing, blankets, all kinds of items! But, if you don’t know some of these simple stitches you won’t get very far! This is one of the least expensive hobbies you can take up. In Handiworks tutorial she shows you several basic stitches for embroidering and you will be able to decorate your clothing that you’ve long to do!

I’ve embroidered some of the most fabulous looking things on my denim shirt now that I know how to do this! I’ve put a big bright sun on it and all the different stitches she shows you how to do in all different colors! I did the seed stitch, in hot pink, around the collar, lazy daisies in white and I went back into the middle of them with a yellow french knot. I used some of the other stitches in some other designs on my shirt. I’m so exited when I wear it…it’s stunning AND I did it myself!

These are the stitches she teaches you how to do:

  • Running Stitch
  • Back Stitch
  • Split Stitch
  • French Knots
  • Chain Stitch
  • Feather Stitch
  • Satin Stitch
  • Lazy Daisy
  • Seed Stitch

Watch how Handiworks creates these stitches in her step by step tutorial so you can have those unique articles of clothing too!

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
