Beschreibung durch Verkäufer:in

Have fun using these 12 original designs to embroider clothes, clothing accessories, pillow cases, cushions, napkins, hankies, etc. So many opportunities to learn embroidery, and get creative in the process.

Mending - cover small holes and tears with these versatile patches to make your favourite items wearable again.

Are you a thrift shopper? You can add these designs to personalise and upcycle thrifted clothes, bags etc., giving them a completely new life and look, while doing your bit to reduce waste.

You can also use these for hoop embroidery, saving you having to trace designs, and the packs make great gifts.

Design sizes range between 1 x 1” – 2 x 3” (2.5 x 2.5 – 5 x 7.6cm).

TIPS
Peel the backing away from your chosen design, stick it firmly to your fabric, stitch using your chosen colours and stitches, then when you’ve finished, rinse the item, or soak for a while in warm water, to dissolve the patch. You will have a beautiful handmade embroidery project to be proud of.

Non-stretch fabric, e.g. denim, is always easier to stitch. If you want to embroider on stretchy fabric, e.g. a tee shirt, it can be done! Just ensure you apply some iron-on fusible interfacing inside the tee shirt, behind where you intend to embroider. The fabric won’t stretch as much, and your stitches will be more even. Practising on an old tee shirt is recommended.

If using a hoop with stretch fabric, don’t tighten the fabric anything like as taut as you would for non-stretch fabric. Just make it tight enough so it holds the fabric, and you can embroider comfortably.

I recommend DMC embroidery thread, which is easily available, inexpensive, high quality, and colour fast.

Embroidery instructions and stitch diagrams aren’t included in this pack. However, if you think you would like some, message me and I will email you a copy of my comprehensive instructions that buyers receive when they purchase my PDF designs.
