How-To | Sublime Stitching

by Jenny Hart ♥

Lemme guess: You think you can't do it. You think it's too difficult. You think it's only for little old ladies who want bunnies and geese on everything and have nothing better to do on a Friday night. Guess what? So did I. But now, I can show you how to embroider. I figured some things out.

You may not know crochet from cross-stitch, but have no fear: some easy, encouraging and de-mystifying instructions are here. I'm not your cranky aunt telling you it's no use trying unless it's perfect. (That's what I'm trying to say.)

Now, before you start clicking on links below and get lost in internet rabbit-holes, scroll down to see what's here. Also, this how-to section is just a starting point for learning embroidery, and in no way an exhaustive source. But, if you want to start embroidering, start here. My books offer more in-depth instructions and projects, and will take your stitches and knowledge even further.

✓ Need an embroidery kit to get going? Try my Ultimate Embroidery Kit? I dunno. Thousands have learned how to embroider with it. (And I'm so proud of all of them!)

Okay, ready to stitch this thing?
