Backstitchīackstitch is one of the basic embroidery stitches all beginners learn. If you’re stitching huge words, full 6-ply floss is a good idea. So if your handwritten phrase is smaller, a 1- or 2-ply floss is a better bet. A good rule of thumb: the smaller your embroidered letters, the less floss you should use. Pro Tip: Try to balance the size of the letters with your ply.
Choose your favorite stitches from the ones below, write your phrase legibly and you’ll be on your way to perfectly handwritten embroidered letters. And while the technique you use totally depends on your personal style, some stitches are a better fit for lettering than others. Whether you’re stitching an inspirational quote in big, colorful font or adding subtle detail to a larger project, it’s easy to add a personal touch by stitching your own handwriting.
