What is embroidery?

For those of you who have not yet engaged in embroidery, but want to change this, we explain here what embroidery actually is. Embroidery is decorating a fabric or paper using a thread that is pulled through the backing fabric. The fabric is your canvas & the threads are your colors. You can let your creativity run wild with different stitching techniques.

In China, India and Egypt there is very old evidence of first embroideries, at that time mainly with geometric shapes. Gradually, mainly animals and people were embroidered on garments or decorative items. Until today, many different embroidery techniques have developed, as well as variations of the carrier fabric. Especially in this day and age, embroidery is gaining attention again. Self embroidered projects are all over social media.

Learn to embroider : motifs & ideas

Learning to embroider is relatively easy because unlike sewing, knitting or crocheting, no special dexterity is required. Only with difficult fabrics this becomes relevant. You can embroider on just about any fabric, you just have to use the right embroidery technique in each case. The cross stitch is well suited for beginners. Here, a small cross is formed by two diagonally drawn threads. With this almost any motif can be embroidered, because one cross can be seen as one pixel and thus pictures and motifs can be easily embroidered. Aida fabric, a stretchy cotton fabric that has a hole pattern, is particularly well suited for this. Because of the predefined holes, you don't have to embroider freehand, but can use them as a guide.

For motifs and embroidery ideas, take a look at our website. You will definitely find a suitable embroidery motif for you in our assortment of up to 20,000 DIY projects. Whether with an embroidery hoop, pillowcase or jute bag, the possibilities are almost endless.
