You want to do something creative at a relaxed get-together with friends – but setting up a large embroidery machine in a café is rather impractical. Hand embroidery is the perfect alternative: quiet, relaxing, and possible anywhere. That's exactly why we're going to learn hand embroidery now.

On Wednesday, November 19, 2025 at 7 p.m., we'll be going live on YouTube – together with Lieselou DIY . This time it's all about hand embroidery : perfect projects for the couch, the kitchen table, or an evening with friends when the embroidery machine is taking a break.

We'll show you step by step:

  • How to achieve great effects with simple stitches
  • what you should pay attention to when it comes to yarn, fabric and needles
  • how hand embroidery becomes a beautiful complement to machine embroidery

To complement the livestream, you'll find the following items in our shop, among others:

  • Anchor hand embroidery thread – Pearl Cotton, size 5 – for clean lines and beautiful textures
  • Embroidery and sewing needles for hand embroidery – with matching point and eye
  • Embroidery hoops for hand embroidery – for relaxed work and a clean result
  • Fabric cutouts & badge fabrics (e.g. BadgeTex) – perfect for small designs and patches
  • Water-soluble marking pens – for guidelines that simply disappear after stitching.

Save the date, grab your yarn and needles and join us for a live embroidery session.
