What is Ribbon embroidery
Hi
Ribbon embroidery involves the use of delicate and beautiful ribbons to create exquisite sewn designs. Like traditional embroidery, ribbon embroidery is often used to decorate a base piece of fabric, such as a quilt, piece of clothing, handbag, or handkerchief. Ribbon is often used to embroider flower patterns, as the color and sheen of the ribbon can draw attention to the design. Embroidery requires mastery of a few basic stitches in order to create magnificent patterns and motifs. With ribbon embroidery, one of the most important stitches is called the ribbon stitch. After stitching a whip or straight stitch, pull a length of ribbon out behind the needle. Laying the loose ribbon on the base fabric, create a curled petal by stitching back through the loose ribbon, about halfway along its length. This simple stitch can be learned in moments, and allows the quick and easy creation of basic flower petals.
Keep sharing and reading thanks
