This tutorial is perfect for beginners like me! The step-by-step instructions are easy to follow and the end result is a beautiful hand-embroidered handkerchief.
Tnx so much for showing the backside stitch. No one has shown the backside stitch. Can you please tell what type the thread is? It looks like a silk embroidery.
The only way to get a neat back is practice, practice, practice! Top tip for a neat back is to avoid knots as much as possible, but it's difficult as knots are difficult to wrangle. The hanky is made from 100% organic brushed cotton.
I usually use two strands for most projects, so it's definitely a preference of mine, but also using fewer strands makes your stitches 'neater' and less bulky. I'd recommend testing on a bit of scrap fabric with 6 strands, then 5, then 4, etc... and you can find your own preference :)
@@deliciousmonstertea thankyou so much!! Im a beginner on embroidery, i learned embroidery a few months back because i want to embroider stuffs for my nephew. This video and your answer helped me a lot. I certainly could observe that using more strands made it look bulkier and more protruding. I will definitely try will lesser strands now :)

No one ever shows the back! That’s my biggest fear is not having that clean enough.
What kind of fabric for the handkerchief is it?

I want to do this for a gift. Should I wash this to make sure it won't bleed? I will be using DMC floss as well TIA
Sorry for the late response! DMC floss is generally very good quality and the colour shouldn't bleed :)
No worries. I know you are busy. Thank you
Ima do this for a project💫
Thank you❤
Amazing ❤ gonna try this ❤
Hi! Is there a reason why only used two strands of threads for the stitches? Is it because of the fabric or just preference?

Do you have a recommendation for what brand to get for the heat erasing pen?
Any "erasable" ball point pen should work fine - the ones you can get with little rubbers on the end. Frixion is my favourite brand to use :)
Nice
