I am 67 yrs old I used to embroidery many years ago. I had pretty much forgotten how. I found you, and now I am going to start again, I miss it. Thank you. ❤
same here - I am 76 years old and have sewn maschineembroidery for many years - now I want to slowstitch as long I can hold onto the needle.... love from Denmark..
I am learning so much from watching your videos -I have embroidered over 50 yrs and still learn from you - im from Perry Maine U S A thank you I enjoy your voice❤️
Your video instructions are outstanding. Your speed is just right. Slow enough so the student gets it but not so slow as to be boring. I make 1:12 scale dresses and accessories and am hoping to improve my embroidery skills to decorate them. I am certain I have come to the right place!
Hello Sarah. I've just discovered you today. In general, does one embroider on linen or other fabrics as well. Are you using embroidery floss ? How many strands ? Thank you
@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery ... well, considering your experience, knowledge and beautiful creations I'll not debate you on it! You are the Queen of embroidery! All hail the Queen!!! Lol 😊🤭
Awesome I've been looking for someone to show me these stitches for so long and here you are!! Clear around the world, WOW! THANK YOU AND HOPE TO LEARN MORE!! From the north east coast of USA
Thank you so much Sarah. My (left-handed) French Knots are a law unto themselves at present but they are improving, albeit very slowly! Your videos are everything a beginner needs and I am so grateful for your generosity and the time you took to make them.. Thank you hugely. Marion in the UK
Hi I'm new... you make it look soooooo easy...I'm getting there, now I got your needle threader, I couldn't even thread the needle, ha. I've been flat machine sewing for years but trying to see the eyelet to thread is hard. I'll keep practicing. Your shops great too. Thank you Sarah.😊
I learned embroidery when I was nine and enjoyed it very much. Hadn't done it in years though. Now I'm brushing up on my knowledge and adding to it. Came across your videos which I find very listenable. I like the one where you show various ways to transfer a pattern to fabric. I'm going to have so much fun embroidering. I love hand sewing!
I love your teaching method! You take your time to slowly explain to beginners to hand embroidery. So easy to follow. I would like to post a picture up of my first go at it. I used all five of these stitches.
I am so impressed by your videos and greatly appreciate the time and effort you put into them! I'm learning so much and I know I'm learning the right way.
Thanks! Your tutorials have made it very easy to try embroidery for the first time. I have created a sampler on a 9" frame, practicing these stitches, plus some of your outline and circle stitches in my sampler. Now my daughter's friend, upon seeing my sampler, wants to try embroidery too. I directed her to watch your RUclips tutorials, since they are easy to follow.
Thank you for your support Elizabeth, it sounds like you are spreading the embroidery love to which is so nice to hear. I'm glad you are enjoying your new hobby! x
Yay finally a video of stitches where someone is explaining it to me I found other videos with just texts explaining it to confusing this video was super easy for me to understand so thank you so very much
Seeing this very late but what a great way to demonstrate this. The closeup shot is excellent. Very easy to learn with your teaching method. Thank you, Vicki
I like to see the left handed at workm , as left handed myself. It’s always more difficult following right handed people when you are trying tim. Thank you fo sharing ,
What an excellent video!! Thank you so much for sharing. I forgot how beautiful embroidery is. Love your instruction on the French Knot. I never knew about the Pistol Stitch.
Thank you for your talent. It's SO HELPFUL to get master info. I had to chuckle to myself when I saw you do the Pistel stitch. When I learn to embroidery (years ago as a teenager) it was 2 separate steps: it was a straight stitch with a 2 or 3 wrap around the needle for a french knot. NEVER THOUGHT to do it all in one step. Binge watching your videos, VERY HELPFUL.
A left handed I believe, nice to see fellow left hinders working as things are so different to do aren’t they. I find trying to follow right hinders instruction s very difficult to follow what they are doing at times. Very helpful thank you.
danke Sarah.I am sitting here doing my very first stem stitch. and rewinding you when you get ahead of me. I am really loving this stitch. your voice is encouraging me as I do more and more of these .and I relax too.
You can pause the video too Jan! We also have another more indepth video on stem stitch here which you might like to try: ruclips.net/video/BZ62d5j4bXQ/видео.html
I'm rather loving StitchTube - both you and other embroiderers. You're all such an invaluable source of information for a beginner, and most of you are really good at showing what you're doing so the rest of us can replicate it on our side of the internet. So thank you for that!
So, following you makes me feel as if I’m gettin an RSN education through you😊. Thank you for sharing with those don’t have the opportunity to do so officially!
I was trying to find a border stitch that would go nicely around a curve. You said a stem stitch. But it came out looking like a centipede. My guess is I was pulling it too tight. So I will try it again. I sure do love your videos!
Just found you. I am wanting to start embroidery as a complete novice. You are excellent and have really inspired me to have a go. Great presentation. Thank you so much. Best wishes, Lottie
Your video is fantastic. Your instructions are clear, and the video is so helpful, and easy to follow. I will be looking at many of your videos as I get back into embroidery. Thank you so much, Sarah!
I love your videos. I am just starting out and already learning so much. You are an excellent teacher and I really appreciate your time and efforts in making these fantastic videos.
Thank you Sarah! I love your tutorials. They are easy to follow and you are so calm. I feel like we could be friends! I live in the USA. I love your accent.
I started embroidering in elementary school and loved it. My mother was a beautiful seamstress so the house was always full of textiles. I have just started watching your videos and really enjoy them, and I haven’t finished one where I didn’t learn at least one new trick! I do have a question though about one of your techniques and that deals with separating strands of embroidery floss. You simply pull off the number needed and continue from there where in my area of the USA at least, we “strip” the threads, which means each of strand of a 6 stranded cotton floss is pulled from the others and laid flat and all in the same direction because that would cause variations in the twists if not all lying parallel. I was always told this helps the yarn to stitch flatter and smoother, and achieves a fuller look with the threads with less twisting. Some of my friends, when using cotton floss, will even keep a small hair flat iron on a towel next to them and run the multiple strands through the appliance to achieve what they feel I is the best appearance. I have not seen you do this in any of the videos I have watched so far and wondered if you could weigh in on the pros and cons of using these processes to achieve the best embroidered appearance. If you have discussed it, would you let me know what video to watch so I can get your input. No hurry! Just curious! Than you for all your hard work in bringing this great information to all of us! K. Gallant
Glad you are enjoying the videos Kathleen! I am about to make one about stranding (stripping!) your cottons/floss so it's interesting to hear how it's done in your part of the world. I did teach in America quite a lot over a ten year period and yes my class were stripping their threads like there was no tomorrow! They were a bit shocked when I said they didn't need to do it all the time (time being something we were short on!). It's a bit different for needlepoint where you have to make sure you cover the canvas but for embroidery on fabric I would dare to say it isn't necesary all of the time (I know there will be people who disagree with this!). Time is a factor, as is the look you want and the technique you are using, so I make my decisions accordingly. The twist is the same whichever way around you have your thread (a 'Z' twist is always a 'Z' twist!) so I defy anyone to be able to tell if the strands are the wrong way around! You will also never catch me ironing my threads; for one, life is too short and two, I think it would actually flatten them. No where on Anchor/DMC or other makes does it suggest you iron them before use! It's a really interesting subject! I will just add, the relief to some of my lovely US students was palpable when I gave them permission not to strip their threads...:)
Sarah thanks so much for your step by step process in learning all the basics in embroidery, I'm just 2 days into this new hobby and definitely loving every bit of it. Your instructions are detailed and so informative for this beginner and also for those that want to refresh their skill.
Welcome to the world of embroidery Cora, you will love it! Check out the beginners embroidery page on my website for more info, tips, designs, videos... Enjoy!
Love this, I can't wait to try all of these on my next handkerchief embroidery. I appreciate the explanation, split camera angles and edit. Thank you Sarah, great video. ❤️
Gosh Sarah - thank you so much for just these basic explanations. I’m new to embroidery and so many videos out there on RUclips but not many with some basic explanations. 🙂
This was super helpful. I have never done embroidery before and this video helped my to complete all of these successfully. Although I will say I did struggle with the french knot, but that was purely my fault as I wasn't keeping the thread nice and tight around my needle.
I was having a real tough time making french knots the other day. It would end up knotting up too soon and then I'd just have a thread with a knot in it, and I'd have to cut it and start over. I guess what I was doing wrong was not holding that tension on the one thread. Now I'm looking forward to trying it again! :)
I've been following you now for a short while and my hand embroidery has really come on since I found your channel. Thank you for such brilliant tutorials. I would never have started properly if I hadn't found your channel. Xmas last year I received a teach yourself embroidery set of 4 samplers. The instructions are odd to say the least. I would have given up long ago without your tutorials. But I'm stuck..😢 do you have a tutorial please on simple 3D stitches? I cant find one in your stash of videos. I've learned about 15 stitches now but trying to progress to a 3d petals on a flower stitch and not getting it ! Please can you help🤔 .
Hello. New to embroidery and hand sewing for that matter. I enjoy and have watched many of your videos. I hope you answer as I'm SO confused... is embroidery done from left to right?? Was watching the Stem Stitch and unless it's a weird play of camera on project vs a reverse thing to viewer (which i would never understand lol) you're stitching from left to right, yes? I just watched 2 other tutorial videos and they stitch left to right. I thought perhaps I just ended up on left-handed videos. Ms. Sarah's or any experienced person's knowledge is appreciated. Thank you!
You are a brillant teacher. I l❤ve your videos. Thank you for the repetition for each stitch and for NOT speeding up the video. I have just subscribed and am literally binge watching your videos. They are very calming. I'm a beginner. Is there a particular size of needle to start with?
Glad you are enjoying the videos Katz, welcome on board! The needle size depends on the thread, so check out my 'Which needle should I use?' video! We have a beginners embroidery page on the website, you might find that useful? It's got all those need to know videos in one place! www.sarahhomfray.com/beginners-embroidery.html
@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery Thank you for replying. I found some calico in my sewing box and have just practised doing the 5 embroidery stitches. I need to work on the chain stitch. I really like the other stitches. My favourite is the stem stitch. Im using thread which says 'moonbrand'. Its very twisty and curly hence the poor chain stitches. No matter how much I try and straighten the thread by pulling it through my fingers it remains twisty.
I’m working a busy sampler and have realized that the “t’s” are done three different ways. I’d like to make them all the same but it would mean taking out some stitching. Can I do this without risking loosening the stitches connecting them? Silly question, but can I glue the neighboring stitches? This will be a framed piece. Thank you!
Dios le bendiga hermosas manos de toda una mujer sabía que bonitos bordados todo los tutoriales me dejan asombrada muy bellos. Dios le guarde y le siga bendiciendo
In this video I'm using a Maderia Lana thread, these ones here: www.sarahhomfray.com/myshop/cat_1116427-Madeira-Lana.html These stitches work in any threads though!

The way you describe the stitches but by bit with important details really speaks to me. I also find the two camera set up very helpful.
Thanks Kristin, glad you are finding helpful!
Totally agree! This method helps me sooo much. I’m grateful for your help @sarahhomfrayembroidery !
I’m so happy I found you. I can’t believe your free. You are a very good teacher, ☺️
Love your videos. No nonsense. well-explained tutorials....No glitter finger nails, etc 😆 A great teacher!

Hello Sarah. I've just discovered you today. In general, does one embroider on linen or other fabrics as well. Are you using embroidery floss ? How many strands ? Thank you
Wonderful vid, ty. Have never seen a French knot done with only one turn of the thread before. It looks so much more delicate and pretty.
Ah, the never ending debate on how many times you should wrap a French knot!
@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery ... well, considering your experience, knowledge and beautiful creations I'll not debate you on it! You are the Queen of embroidery! All hail the Queen!!! Lol 😊🤭
