Embroidering

Hi Friends!

Making this quick post to talk about my current hobby: Embroidering :)
There are tons of youtube videos for tips and tricks! And I know it's overwhelming to get started so I've added links for material you will need.

Hoops:
I usually use 4-6 in for personal pieces.

String:
They are super affordable individually on Michaels, but if you want a lot for a good price I would get them from Amazon. You will basically be stocked for the rest of your life. (jk)

Needles:
There are different needles, but I bought these and they are really useful!

Fabric:
You can use an old tee or pillow case. Any fabric is useful, and different fabric will create different results. These are the 2 I've used:
cross stitch: https://www.michaels.com/loops-and-threads-aida-cloth-cross-stitch-fabric/10357720.html
im currently using these, they are ok and work well with most of my embroidery pieces.

Don't forget, you also need scissors and a cross stitch pattern. My patterns have all been hand drawn and then I just trace them on the material.

Hope you found this useful!
