Before You Begin

Prepare the fabric on the embroidery hoop by separating the 2 circles and laying the fabric over the inner one. Place the Bull’s larger circle over the top and press down to secure the fabric. Adjust the fabric position to ensure the design is centred. Tighten the screw and gently pull the fabric edges to ensure it’s taut. Do not pre wash the fabric.
Embroidery thread is made up of 6 strands of thread twisted together. We recommend using 2 strands of thread cut into 1-meter lengths to be more manageable.
To separate the threads, pinch the end of the thread in between your thumb and forefinger to spread out the strands. Take 2 strands in your other hand and pinch the remaining thread in between your thumb and forefinger and gently pull the 2 strands of thread up. Continue to slowly pull until entirely separated. The thread will gather, but it should not tangle.
Begin your embroidery by following the guide image for colour and stitch reference. It may be helpful to practice stitch types before beginning. Tie a knot to start and end your thread.
To complete your hoop, turn it over and trim the excess fabric from the edges. Alternatively, trim the fabric and fold it over the inner part of the back side of the hoop. Use hot glue to secure the fabric.

Long Back Stitch

Bring the needle up at point A, then Insert it at B, about 1.5cm from A Bring back up at C, about 1.5cm from point B.
Insert the needle back down Into B. then back up at D about I. 5cm post-C.
Continue along to create lines of long bock stitch.

Lazy Daisy Stitch

Bring the needle up through the fabric where you want to begin stitching at point A Insert the needle back into the hole.
Keeping the thread in a loose loop. bring the needle up through B. with the loop around the needle,
Pull the thread through the loop and insert the needle at C. fastening the top of the loop

Long And Short Stitch

Bring the needle up where you want to begin stitching at A. Insert at B a t a slight diagonal and pull through at C (halfway between A and B). Pull the thread through to form the Hrst stitch.
For row, I, working along the edge of the shape. make stitches next to each other. alternating between long and short stitches. The short stitches should be half the length of the long stitches

Bullion Knot

Bring the needle up at A and pull the thread through. Insert the needle at B and bring the needle back up at C. next to A.
Wrap the thread around the needle multiple times. More wraps will result in a larger knot. Pull the needle through and insert at B to create a bullion knot.

Stem Stitch

Bring the needle up where you want to begin stitching at A. Insert the needle at B at a slight diagonal and pull through at C (halfway between A and B).
Repeat stitches, keeping the thread on the left side of the needle and making sure the stitches are the same length.

Satin Stitch

Starting at the edge of your shape, bring the needle up at A and pull the thread through. Insert the needle at B and back up at C. Pull the thread through to form the first stitch.
Repeat the first sequence to create a set of parallel stitches. Continue to fill the shape with stitches.
Satin stitch can also be angled to produce a fan shape. This is formed by bringing the needle through the same hole at the base of the fan, as shown.
For row 2, work long stitches in the spaces created by the short stitches.
Continue with more rows until you’ve reached the opposite side of the shape.
