Embroidery is the ornamentation of textiles and other materials with needlework for
personal use and decoration not only at home but for offices as well.
The term embroidery is an English word derived from the old French embroiders
meaning edge and border.

Tape measure - use to measuring more than one-foot distance or materials.

Embroidery hoop/stiletto
It is advisable to place tissue paper over the inner hoop or twist or wrap the inner hoop with a thin
material to prevent markings on the fabric.
Embroidery scissor
Protect the blade by keeping them in a sheath or cover and get them sharpened occasionally
Embroidery needle
Needles should always have a fine tip so that they can easily move in and out of the fabric.
Do not use a needle which is bent, without a point or rusty. This will affect the regularity and

to ensure Industry
and careful
care of embroidery thread. Store it properly under controlled conditions to avoid the following issues:
Thread dents—when a cone falls onto the floor, the point of impact can “dent” the thread, resulting in
a weak spot (or spots) that can ultimately lead to problems as the thread travels toward the needle.
This is a common problem for those that store unused cones on top of their machine. Those cones will
“walk” across the machine table due to the vibration of sewing and ultimately end up on the floor.
Discoloring and fading—Threads, especially rayon, will fade when exposed to sunlight for extended
periods of time. If your threads are stored on a window sill or anywhere that sunlight can strike them
full force, you risk fading and discoloring.
Lint buildup—Threads that sit out, exposed to the elements of your shop’s environment, are prone to
dust and lint building up. Over time, such buildup can sink down into the threads. When the thread
travels through the upper thread path, it takes the crud with it, dispensing it along the way onto critical
surfaces (such as tensioners) that need to remain clean and smooth. The end result will be
inconsistent upper thread tension and possible thread breaks.
Brittleness—In addition to discoloring and fading, excessive exposure to sunlight can dry out the
thread and lead to brittleness in the fibers. Obviously, this will weaken the thread and lead to excessive
thread breaks.

of bullion stitches may also be used to outline a design.
Cross-stitch- stitched formed by two crossing arms and may be used for outlining, as
borders or to fill in an entire area.
Feather stitch- a stitch with a loop and stitches evenly worked on both left and right
sides of a design area.
Fish Bone- a kind of filling stitch which is ideal for making leaves or feathers. It
requires us to divide the pattern into two and each side is filled alternately giving it a
plaited effect in the centre, thus ideal to make leaves or feathers.
French knot- a single detached stitched used primarily to fill in a design area. It is a
popular stitch among embroiderers in that it can be used to create the eyes on an
embroidered face or the center of a flower.
Herringbone stitch- a basic overlapping stitch popular for its use in borders.
Lazy daisy chain stitch- also called detached chain stitch, this stitch is work in a circle
to resemble the petals of a flower.
Looped stitch- a very decorative stitch and can be experimented with threads for
various colors. Close layers of this stitch can create wonderful effects on a pattern.
Running stitch- considered being the easiest stitch for outlining.
Satin stitch- a solid filling stitch that is used to cover a design area with long, straight
stitches worked very close together
