Thank you for the comments!! I have one hand-embroidery video on a jean jacket that includes flowers, but I'm still working on adding new videos as often as I can! I'll keep flowers in mind :)
Best tutorial on this I've seen ❤. After a little trial and error (and some aggravation because I didn't have the adhesive wash away stabilizer so I pinned on tear away... don't do that 😂) I got the hang of it. Your stitches are perfect ❤
This is incredible, thank you so much! Especially the splitting of floss by just pulling one out straight up. But so many good tips for a beginner like me, love it. Thanks :)
Thank you for your video! It is very helpful. Do find it necessary to cover the back stitches to make sure the stitches do not come loss? Do you have a recommendation to cover up the stiches?
You’re welcome! I haven’t found it necessary to cover the back yet. We’ve got swaddles here that are years old that are still holding on strong, despite my non-sorting laundry methods 😂😂. I definitely don’t think it would hurt though!
I made one when my girlfriend got a surprise baby sister in her 20s and I think I’m the favorite daughter now 😌😌 Just kidding! But for real it’s suchhhh a lovely design and so much easier than it looks Thx for sharing !!!
@@Melissa-ij5mn hey, Melissa! I haven’t on some and I have on others. The ones without and loved long lives! The ones that I make for others I do and the ones I keep I don’t, just because I’m lazy 😂. I like this Sulky product for covering stitches:amzn.to/46A9Hfp.

@@southernsewingcothat would be so awesome! I went to hobby lobby to purchase everything in the video. I’m currently practicing and because of this video it’s coming out beautifully. Thank you so much! I do however want to make Christmas ones but I want big bold words that are a lot thicker :)
Why am I so worried about my initial knot pulling through? Is there any other way to start? I was considering doing it on a thermal blanket so I feel like the knot may come through at some point. Should I put a knot and leave a tail to weave through the back stitches once my first letter is done? But thank you so much for this tutorial!!!! ❤❤❤
Hey, Jane! There are definitely other ways to begin if you’re worried about the knot pulling through. A good option that you mentioned is to weave the tail back through. You can also go on RUclips and look up an anchor stitch ( I don’t have a video of this yet!). I hope this helps. Thanks for watching my tutorial and for the comment!
So helpful! Loved this tutorial! I tried this process out for the first time today and it went great except I had some puckering in between and around my lettering. I was using a strechy material so I think that is why. Any tips on how to prevent this from happening?
Hey! I’m so glad it went well! As for the puckering, sometimes it can happen because the fabric is a little too tight in the hoop (usually). Especially if it’s happening in between your letters. If you know you’re not pulling the stitches too tightly, I would try to loosen fabric a little! I hope this helps! -Ashley
I did find a trick for the sleeve! I’m sending you to another video I have ❤️. There’s another stabilizer that would work better. ruclips.net/video/_hAsFicx3J8/видео.html
Hey! Thank you so much ❤️. I’m working from a bundle of embroidery floss that I purchased on Amazon. I can’t remember exactly what it was called, but it’s all 6 strands in a light pink color.

Hey!! I’ve been meaning to do a tutorial for a baby onesie! I would actually recommend this one: amzn.to/3VLbV6R. It’s sticky and I think works better for onesies!
Hey! I thought I responded to this- sorry for the delay! I don't include a backing on these, but that's just me! You can use a product like this (amzn.to/3KwAwao). OR If you wanted to turn this into a blanket with a backing you can consider adding minky or flannel fabric! I have a tutorial for this on my page too :) Hope this helps!
Hey! Sorry for the delay! I do love DMC embroidery needles and floss. I use all 6 strands of floss for this project! Here is a link to the needles I'm using on Amazon: Embroidery Needles: amzn.to/3trsXws. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have more questions..there is a lot more information in the description of the video!
It’s easier if you use washable stabilizer- iron it on, embroider, then wash to get it off. What size needle & how many pieces of embroider thread, all 6?
Thanks for your comment! This is just how I’ve always done it and it works for me and wanted to share 😃. I am using all 6 strands. These are actually John James embroidery needles, size 6.
Hey! I think this might be a personal preference thing! I usually pull enough out so that I can stretch my arm all the way out, but not so much that I'm having to do that like twice if that makes sense lol
It’s a crayola tracing pad! It’s actually a kid toys lol. Here’s a link: www.amazon.com/dp/B07P6RFKRL/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_VVPVZ9GZ4ATY1F9TYEGY?linkCode=ml2&tag=ashleyuponder-20 You can also just use an open window to tape your piece to and trace.
I definitely don’t see why you couldn’t use this technique on pants or a hoodie! Since those are more structured- look on my RUclips page for the knit sweater hand-embroidery tutorial. That stabilizer may work better! Measure the area and figure out how long you want the name. In Canva, you can drag the size and while you do that, you’ll see measurements pop up! Just match it to what you measures on your pants/hoodie. I’m happy to help more with this if you need it!
Oh no! Try just typing in ‘harm’ in the font search bar on Canva and see if it pulls up. Sometimes mine doesn’t want to find it by the full name. Hope this helps!
Hey! So when you’re done, or run out of thread…from the backside, take your needle and weave the left over thread in and out of the back of the previous stitches. I tend to go up and down through the backs of stitches a couple of times. This is usually good enough to tie off, but for an extra security, I separate my 6 strands of floss in half, then double knot it. Then cut the excess. I hope this makes sense! I need to add another video of this! I’m the mean time I know there are more helpful ‘tie off’ embroidery videos!
Hey! Possibly...but that material is super stretchy. The problem that you'll run into is hooping it. If you take care making sure that you aren't stretching the material AT ALL while hooping..or even not using a hoop and just using a water soluble marker, it might work better! Hope this helps!
Hey!! Absolutely! Check out my two other videos- one is the same idea on a sweatshirt and one on a jean jacket- but in it, I recommend a different stabilizer that I like more for heavier weight items! Also- this is just a regular DMC embroidery floss. Amazon sells big packs in their brand for pretty cheap! This like one : amzn.to/3xCtQnA
Hey, Nicole! This is definitely something that takes practice and over time you can eye ball it. I’ve seen some people make two tick marks on their index finger as a quick way to measure!
I’ve never swaddled a baby before, where would this appear on the blanket when the baby is swaddled? Would it be visible when they are wrapped up in it? I was thinking of just folding down one corner to the outside and embroidering there, so her name would show on her back when she’s wrapped up, which isn’t as nice as across her front.
Hey, Rachel! Thanks for your comment! When the name is in the corner like this, I usually will fold the corner down, drape it over the top of the baby, and then snug her all in! So not quite ‘swaddled’ but just more snuggled lol. I’ve been kind of experimenting with name placement and then wrapping the baby to see where it comes. It just varies! Hope this helps ❤️
@@lamandacarter6067 this is the classic version! I’m sure both would work great though. I’ve also used this brand from Amazon and was happy with it amzn.to/3OaEoiL
Hey! Stitch consistency just cokes with time and practice, which sounds dumb and I hate saying that! Eventually you learn to eye ball moving the needle the same distance down each time. If it doesn’t look right, don’t be afraid to pull the stitches out and try again! Or if you really wanted to, you can use a ruler to pre-measure dots ahead as a guide, making them a little closer together around curves..until you get the hang of it! Hope this helps!
Hey, Laura! I definitely think you can! For that, try Sulky sticky/wash-away stabilizer It works much better for that. Here’s a link: www.amazon.com/dp/B004R2B3NU/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_KNNXGN0XZEBXAYJQ8DNP?linkCode=ml2&tag=ashleyuponder-20
@@laurav1025 oh sure! The hoop just makes your work easier to hold on to and keeps it tight, but a Jean jacket is stiff enough to not need one😃. You got this!
You can definitely do without it, which is how I started! I really think it makes the stitching a lot easier and looks cleaner. Definitely worth the small investment, and you can use that roll for a bunch of projects! Hope this helps❤️
Hey! I actually use leather stitching needles for embroidery lol. I think any hand-embroidery needles with a sharp point/little bit bigger eye would work! This is a good option: amzn.to/3PNqy7U
hey! I definitely use different font sometimes, especially because they really just look funny sometimes! Scroll through Canva and see what you might like, playing with the different fonts.

If I’m sewing onto a firmer fabric, do I still need the stabilizer?
Not necessarily no! I don’t use it all the time. Mostly when the fabric is thin and when I want to transfer a computer design 😀

Did you prewash the swaddle before embroidering?
Hey!! I don’t for my own children, but do in baby detergent for others ❤️
But how do I tie off the knot? I'm having trouble with that especially when I run out of floss and have to add more
Hey! So when you’re done, or run out of thread…from the backside, take your needle and weave the left over thread in and out of the back of the previous stitches.

If you know you like calligraphy or handwritten fonts, type that into the search bar and Canva and see what you can find! I hope this helps.
