Hummingbird Greeting Cards
Project Description
It’s totally possible to embroider on paper—even with metallic thread!
Stitching on paper is ideal for combining with other coloring media; I used colored pencils on one of the cards.
The basic tricks are similar to any embroidery:
- Choose the right design
- Choose the right fabric, or, in our case paper
- Hoop it without damage to the machine or project
- Use the right stabilizer, thread, and needle
- Make sure your machine is optimized (speed, tensions, clean) for your project
So just what are those for paper? Check out this blog post: 15 Top Tips for Perfect Machine Embroidery on Paper.
