Embroidery has always been up there with our fav stitchy techniques but we’re falling more in love with the possibilities every day. Whether it’s a quick clothing update or a handmade gift for a loved one, you’re sure to adore these project picks as much as we do!
1 Upcycled denim
Brighten your old, worn jeans with a touch of embroidery. But don’t stop there! Why not customise any item of clothing in your wardrobe?
2 Cute gift
Use embroidery stitches to create a needle kit, perfect for any sewing enthusiast!
3 Sassy storage
Store your favourite pair of shoes in this embroidered tote – there may not be any Jimmy Choos in there but we can dream!
4 Trendy trainers
Who said your feet can’t look stylish too? These funky embroidered trainers make a perfect stitchy project for the weekend.
5 Stitchy artwork
Is your little one constantly making you pretty pictures so your fridge has no space for anymore? Transform your children’s drawings into tea and mug cosies that can adorn your dinner table.
