Welcome to the Saturday Social (Designer Remnant's favourite tutorial from around the web).
This week we have found this fantastic online course from Mollie Johanson at Wild Olive. The photographs are beautiful and clear.
The course, so far (it is an ongoing course) has covered fabric and thread selection, what needles to use, basic stitches, transferring patterns and colour selection.
It has really helped with my latest project...
My Mexican day of the dead embroidery is coming along great guns (pattern is from Urban Threads where you can find the coolest hand embroidery patterns to download for $1 each).
So if you fancy giving embroidery a go, or you just need a refresher course - check out Embroidery Basics and you'll be embellishing every bit of fabric you own in no time at all.
Have a great Saturday!!
