About
About Mrs. Embroidery
Mrs. Embroidery is a learning site for people who want to stitch beautiful, meaningful things by hand, even if they've never threaded a needle.
Hand embroidery has a way of slowing life down. A few quiet stitches in the evening, a name on a baby blanket, initials on a wedding handkerchief: these are small things that carry a lot of love.
We believe anyone can learn. That's why every stitch here is taught with the same simple diagram language: numbered holes, clear up-and-down steps, and one helpful tip. No jargon, no pressure, and no need to be perfect.
What you'll find here
- A free Beginner Guide with printable patterns
- A stitch library with diagrams for 12 essential stitches
- Project ideas for gifts, babies, weddings, churches and small businesses
- An honest supply list so you only buy what you need
