Custom Embroidered Sweatshirt? Hell yeah!
This one took so long, I'll never stop talking about it! It was worth every second though. I'm stocked on how it turned out! Definitely my most ambitious project to date.
Hope you enjoy watching me make this beauty!
A few things to say:
You can pretty much embroider whatever design your heart desires.
Print it on the fabric stabiliser first. If you don't have one, you can get away with using thick paper, wet it and rip it out after you're done.
Printable fabric stabiliser is a tricky one to work with as it bleeds the printer ink after you wash it off incorrectly. I was able to avoid it this time, but just be careful. The best thing to do is to stick your finished work into a washing machine and wash it on the most delicate wash you have.
The less thread strands you use, the longer it'll take to finish, but it will definitely look a lot more solid than if you were to use all 6 strands of floss.
And be patient. It'll take some time.
Embroidery craft is not for everyone, but give it a try! Who knows, right?
I love it cause it gives me an opportunity to create something with my hands. I've always enjoyed that kinda thing.
Maybe you'll even get inspired to hand embroider something fun on one of your old jumpers? IDK, you should!
I'm new to YT, so do let me know what you liked about this video and what you didn't so that I do better next time?
