Not only was this wonderfully informative, but I found this tremendously soothing. Thanks so much, Sarah.

[@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery]

Glad you enjoyed it Elizabeth!

I know we can see your hands while working but I found myself reminding myself periodically through the video that these circles are only about the size of a fingernail! Your videos are very useful and also calming and as a bonus you somewhat remind me of a late friend of mine :) thanks as always Sarah

[@sandramyer7081]

I enjoyed and learned the more details of the variety of circles- Watching you makes the circles shows us more how to use with more details and colors- i,e, thickness, direction and how to start in the middle, etc. . Varieties! Showing us with demonstrations make it clearly to do with types of thread and needles- Sarah, you give us a full visual understanding with yr words and video- Thank you! Wish i had this when I was learning 56 years ago😂🥰

Nice and adorable design mam...😊😊😊

[@teslaandhumanity7383]

I tried embroidery 🪡 last week and it wasn’t pretty, not as easy as it looks , it might be my needle 🪡 so ordered some special ones on Amazon. Love ❤️ your work . I was working on cotton dress fabric maybe 🤔 that’s an issue .

[@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery]

It takes practice Soul like anything worth doing, so don't be hard on yourself! Cotton fabric is good to use, but yes make sure you have good quality needles; we have good ones in the shop on our website here: www.sarahhomfray.com/myshop/cat_264747-Embroidery-Equipment.html. You also need to make sure you use the right needle size for the thread you are using so check out our video on that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2LWhKONga-kbKc We have a whole section on the website all about beginning embroidery with links to useful videos so do stop by and have a look at that: www.sarahhomfray.com/beginners-embroidery-a-guide-on-how-to-get-going-in-this-beautiful-craft.html

GRACIAS GRACIAS

GRACIAS MUY LINDAS

[@pattytalbot8830]

Sarah, your videos are wonderful + I'm learning SO much! I was wondering what you use to trace your circles to begin with? Do you draw them freehand? I'm a bit of a disaster when it comes to drawing for my embroidery (especially circles!). Any ideas?

[@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery]

Try a compass or a circle template Patty! The prick and pounce method is very accurate

[@campanameadow1493]

What is the diameter of the eyelet wheel?

[@EveMeighen]

Thanks for this video. Can you tell me what type of floss do you use and how many strands?

[@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery]

I didn't use a stranded thread in this video Eve, I used a Madeira Lana which is a twisted wool/ blend fibre

[@EveMeighen]

@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery Thank you. If you were using stranded threads, what would be the number of threads that would work the best? For DMC floss, for example?
