Hand Embroidery Essentials - The Second Edition is Here!

July 29, 2022

Hand Embroidery Essentials - The Second Edition is Here!

BIG News! Today I'm introducing the newly updated Second Edition of Hand Embroidery Essentials, my comprehensive resource guide.

Hand Embroidery Essentials Resource Guide from happy Cactus Designs

What's in the guide? I've compiled all of my favorite tools, supplies, and resources for hand embroidery into one digital guide (a downloadable PDF). You can expect 33 pages of tips and resources including direct links to my favorite must-haves. 

What's special about the second edition? This newly expanded edition includes an abundance of new resources in each section since the guide was first published in 2019.

Sections include guides to selecting the best hoops, needles, threads, fabric, scissors, and various supplemental tools and aids, as well as methods to transfer your designs (including onto dark fabric), different ways to finish your embroidery (including framing), and an exhaustive resources list, including my go-to books, videos, online and in-person classes, patterns, and kits. Frequently asked questions are answered in many sections as well. Trust me, you won't find anything else like this on the market.
