Embroidery

Embroidery decorates fabric with threaded needle stitches to make patterns or pictures. Many cultures have their own embroidery styles.

Embroidery can take many hours to finish a detailed design.

Embroiderers use a range of stitches, such as running stitch, chain stitch and satin stitch, to build up their designs.

Embroidery has a long history and is found in clothing and textiles across the world. It is a relaxing craft that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
