Beginner Hand Embroidery Pattern PDF. Who says learning beginner hand embroidery stitches and embroidery samplers can't be fun? Not I. Oddly enough, I created this design before the whole "hot girls read" trademark drama, specifically in order to be as inclusive as possible. Life is funny sometimes!

This beginner embroidery sampler gives you the opportunity to learn and practice 5 different hand embroidery stitches that you can go forth and create magic with. Each element - all the hearts and the text - is a different stitch, but they all look fabulous together, if I do say so myself. I've included 4-inch and 5-inch patterns in this PDF digital download, and the 4-inch size is perfect for a Christmas ornament, if that's your jam.

I'm happy to answer questions! Please contact me via email (shared in PDF) or slide into my DMs on Instagram @shortandsweets. I've linked each stitch to a resource page with step-by-step instructions, photos, and videos. I want you to fall in love with hand embroidery. It's been a real balm for my own mental health, and I've loved having a creative outlet.

This hand embroidery pattern is beginner friendly and fun to sew. I provide suggested DMC thread colors plus stitch suggestions and guidance, but I encourage you to be creative and choose your own! I used white cotton fabric for this rainbow design, but plenty of other colors will look great. If you choose a dark color, simply swap the black embroidery thread for white. Use what fabric you have, or sew this pattern onto a shirt or tote bag, for example.

This download includes
PDF PATTERN DESIGN:
- Black and white printable designs for both a 4-inch hoop and a 5-inch hoop
- DMC colors I used
- Stitches I used
- Full color photos

I can't wait to see what you create! Please tag me on Instagram so I can admire your masterpiece :)
