Embroidery for Beginners: The Basics

What You Will Learn?

• Anyone can embroider!  And I am going to teach you how..
• The first time I guided an embroidery needle through a piece of linen, drawing a deep cerulean blue floss along, I knew I was hooked. Like paper awaiting text, or sheet music awaiting notes, I saw fabric as my own blank canvas, the floss as my paint. .
• I taught myself the art of embroidery, mostly using an antique stitching book from my grandmother. I became enthralled at how simple, classic, traditional stitches could be utilized in infinite ways. As my knowledge expanded and I began to incorporate more complex methods in my work, I found my niche. I began to use these age-old crafting techniques to make modern designs and now my work, sold through my shop King Soleil, is hung on walls and adorns dolls and clothing worldwide.  .
