Big and Bold Embroidery Tip

By: Gail Bauman

When I do my embroidery projects, I like the thread to be thick and bold. To make my embroidery stand out more, I use crochet cotton and I do not seperate the thread strands.

I use stencils and washable markers to make my unique designs to embroider. Many of my dishtowels are embroidered in the middle and not the corners. I just rinse them out when I am done and the lines disappear. I am in the process of embroidering the top of a quilt this way.

what kind of needle do you use to embroider with thicker than usual cotton thread or doubled up embroidery thread?

I have crocheted the Heart Baby Room Sign on Favecrafts web-site.. Now I need to embroider the words "baby's room" on it.. What is the best way to transfer these words to the actual crocheted heart so that I can embroider them???
