Here’s Hand Embroidery For Beginners!

How many strands of embroidery floss should I use on my project?

If you want a bold line that can still manage decent detail, start with three strands. If you want a finer line that’s still easily visible, try two strands.

If you want a very fine line for delicate detail, one strand will do it!

Which needle do I use for my sewing project?

All three needles come in a range of sizes where the higher the number, the thinner or smaller the needle.

Depending on the size of floss being used, the correct size needle can be used to create the appropriate stitch and leave a minimum size hole once you move the needle through the fabric.
