Push the wire through the needle first then put thread through the wire and pull through

[@leidydiperez5223]

That’s the correct way💯

[@ryounger83]

I was coming to comment to say the exact same thing. Lol

[@chawntelh]

I can't believe she DIDN'T KNOW THIS! 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@chloewalker214]

@@chawntelh well not everyone is gonna know the perfect way to do something when they start it, you can't expect someone to know how to perfectly flat wash a background with watercolor if they've only done a few paintings lol

[@chawntelh]

@@chloewalker214 We aren't talking about something difficult like THAT! This is basic common sense! As you are "pushing" the thread thru the eye of the needle, her brain should have kicked in and realized that there was AN EASIER WAY...🤦🏻‍♀️ I don't care what you say, I'm so sick of people defending people that do shit like this! People are getting dumber and lazy! There is NO excuse!

[@kariecakes]

You can get Frixion pens instead of a standard pen. You just use an iron or blow dryer to blast the pen marks away.

[@Quibbster]

they can sometimes fade back if you live in a cold climate, be careful if you aren’t doing a full coverage project as the lines may show through!

[@42seokfilms]

this seems so relaxing! i don’t think i’d have the patience so i’ll just continue watching other people do it lol. it came out so nice!!

[@keci613]

I didnt think I would either but it rlly doesnt get boring or anything and it seems like it goes by pretty quick, you should try it out

[@eumrtn9056]

if you have the patience to watch people do it you probably also have the patience to do it yourself

[@amara560]

You can finish a project in a couple of hours. That's what I love about embroidery.

[@lilmissmonsterrr]

Have you tried it yet? You totally should, it doesn't hurt to try. I'm not patient and I don't like super tedious things but I lover embroidery. It's a good break for busy minds.

[@thecrowsnest8033]

It’s so calming I just started last night. You never know until you try😁

[@WhimsicalHare]

I was shook when you used all 6 strands, that is probably a bit more difficult to pull through the fabric and the needle. Most use 2 or 3 strands of the thread.

[@amara560]

It all depends on what project you're working on, but for most 2-3 strands is preferable yes. However with a woven wheel 6 strands makes the build up much faster.

[@user-zb2ld7it2m]

With 2-3 threads you spend more time filling the areas (such a tedious work ) and also it looks more neatly than with 6 threads (i think it looks a bit rough)

[@orngejuce461]

i think using 6 strands is the proper way but most people split it in half to save thread. im not sure though

[@AlllegroPresto]

I can never get it to pull through the thread when I use more than 2-3 strands, I'm afraid I'm going to tear the cloth when I am pulling it through :( Maybe I need a bigger needle??

[@min_nad]

@@AlllegroPresto maybe you need a more pointy one!

[@Hannah1790]

There's a better way to use the threader tool! Pop it through your needle first then put the thread through the tool. Pull the tool back through the needle and it will pull your thread through with it without separating the strands of the thread. :D

[@palomathepeach]

tysm!!!

[@julezburn1024]

Aww, this makes me want to get out my embroidery supplies. Highly recommend the book "Doodle Stitching" or any other titles by Aimee Ray. Tons of cute patterns and stitches as well as how to turn your personal doodle style into embroidery.

[@rachael5923]

I have this book and I love it, for such cute little designs in! I love all the little food ones ahha

[@elliesmith1752]

Tip if you don’t want to buy spoolies- you can cut up squares of cardboard and they do the same thing

[@emmadenton1826]

I always sketch my design on paper with a pencil first, then go over it will a strong black pen. That way I have created my own pattern! So I can use it multiple times without having to try and recreate a sketch

[@laila749]

You must give the best gifts ever. Everything you make on your channel is so thoughtful, cute, and not to mention hand-made!

[@bauble2618]

Just a little tip from someone who's been sewing/embroidering for years: if you put the threader through the eye of the needle first and then put the thread through it, it's easier than putting the thread through the threader before you put it through the needle

[@cela7208]

ahhhh yes ! i’ve been in need of embroidery videos because of quarantine so this is perfect timing :)

[@wmd40]

I have upgraded from my first old lady hobby, crochet, and now must embroider. Thanks for this video!!! Can't wait to try

[@Mia-zb7ol]

dudeeee its so crazy to watch you're aesthetic grow and evolve over time ✨🦋 much love 💞!!!

[@mallory1304]

This was really helpful in helping me think about how to design my own embroidery patterns! I’m awful at drawing, but the little doodle-y flowers and leaves are so charming and don’t seem too hard, and I could probably manage to copy (or, lbr, trace) a reference pic like you did here. The music you picked is also so soothing! I’m glad this popped up on my feed☺️

[@dougdimmadomeownerofdimmsd770]

to make a knot at the end of your thread you can wrap the long part of said thread around your needle a few times and pull the needle through the coil of thread you looped on there

[@jessicapesso7978]

more of these please!!! I'm obsessed

[@nurlearnsfrench2661]

All your videos are really well done. An amazing editing, the best music for the moment, a voice over (I am not sure if that's the way you write it), that is relaxing and you also explain it in an excellent way.

[@therealhatman01]

I just tried embroidery today and i love it it’s such a cute and unique hobby! this is perfect and even if i’m a beginner i will definitely try this! ❤️

[@ajjones9733]

omg ur pfp is bakugo

[@veronicocoa]

I recently bought embroidery supplies but haven’t been able to start bc of school! but now my school year is over and you post this at the perfect time! this whole idea was so easy to understand and very calming. idk the last time I sat through a whole yet video without fast forwarding until now lol, but I enjoyed the entire video! your work turned out amazing!

[@lilacu]

Love the color you choose on this piece❤️

[@_bobastudies_630]

Can you make more embroidery videos? They’re so relaxing and I love watching you make them!

[@Alabastrodeamor]

I had lots of fun watching this video. Thank you so much for sharing! 🍑🍓🌷🐈‍⬛🐈🐝

[@nathaliepineda3390]

Hi Paloma! I would recommend a water erasable marker, so that you can still see your design without having to use a pen, it is very efficient and can be simply wiped away once you're done. I really loved the way you did this piece, it inspired me to continue embroidering. :)

[@j.m8612]

Great, this was awesome and commentary was easy to follow. Loved the music too...

[@mikagallardo7730]

She is so talented like I truly wish I was like her. She got all the time to do stuff she loves! Wish I was a fast learner as her 💝🤩

[@midwesthawtmess7761]

AHHH this is so cute. 🐝 I loved the change at the end and the little rust flowers. This makes me want to break out the kit that has been in my craft cupboard and do something fun. 🌈

[@carafentyyy2117]

you are calm!love it!

[@adibakhan5593]

I love how dimensioned your stitching is! :^)

[@Enchantelle]

It turned out so lovely! Makes me want to learn embroidery too 💛

[@peenyweeny3834]

really appreciated this tutorial!! your creative process &style of stitching is super approachable :-) i feel ready to do my first real project now

[@nezukolvr442]

You should do a mini series of these throughout time I love embroidery vids ^_^

[@teaBunii]

Rlly loved it! It came out so Perfectly ! And u did a very good job on making it ♡

[@a.lunqqi]

Omg that’s sooo cute😍🥰 Ps: love ur vids aaah💕

[@adaleydiflores3192]

Yesss !!! Ive been wanting to try embroidery for so long thnx for this video 👏🏻🙌🏼

[@emmadenton1826]

Your style is kinda chunky, and I gotta say I really love it! I am definitely gonna have a go making something in this style 🥰

[@helloandbye3363]

u are a true artist

[@kaylianderson5531]

Hey girly, highly recommend learning the lazy daisy method, makes embroidering curves much much easier ❤️

[@MandalaBunnyhome]

It’s so cute!!

[@DeadbyDaylightDUO]

Gorgeous pattern! 🤩

[@corap183]

Ok I HAVE to try embroidery now since I already have a lot of thread to make friendship bracelets.

[@beelzejinw]

You are really talented♡ When quarantine ends I'll try doing embroidery for a change hehe

[@brendacarvente5241]

Omg this is beautiful, can you do more videos like this? Love it!

[@GlaizaJournals]

It’s beautiful 😍 aside from the bee, the white tiny flowers are cute too

[@asialanzi5471]

omg yes paloma! another video! I’m absolutely living for the consistency! how do you do it? because I’m struggling atm to post videos twice a week (my computer just keeps crashing :(

[@palomathepeach]

i just keep my goals in mind to keep me motivated tbh

[@rubielafountaine5586]

Poke the threader through the needle hole, then put the string though the needle threader and pull it back through 😊. Your work is so beautiful! I just started embroidery today but my mom thought me how to use a needle threader.

[@emilywong4601]

I taught a class for kids of embroidering draws. A little boy drew and embroided characters from a phone game!!!

[@pain____full]

I appreciate the French knot and the amazon links my G u a real one

[@silverlining1469]

Amazing work. Background music nice too. Your bee was beautiful. I’m new to embroidery so excited to learn all I can. Subscribed and thank you! X

[@mayolson2]

I Love bees. This is so nice.

[@celestemorse1508]

You could probably us bread clips as spooling for thread, the colored ones with the dates. I use my bunnies hay clip

[@pinkcupcake16348]

it looks so aesthetic!! :D

[@Trishuu]

Been binge watching embroidery vids, I want to try so bad and this makes me want to even more! Maybe after exams 😭❤

[@pinayinsklee]

Pretty!

[@JackieBudgets]

I love it!!! Of course i will try it😬

[@lucyslifewithpets175]

🤯😮😲incredible

[@miriamangel215]

Ugh i love ur vids so much!! Plz do a tutorial on the totoro one plz 😭

[@amnabilal9670]

Goodness paloma! Is there anything that you can't do? You're so talented. Much love from Pakistan💫💖

[@kathykane4982]

Rita Sharp’s advice re: using the needle threader tool is correct, whether for the flexible wire-type like you have or the types that are a circular piece of aluminum with a small hole at each end used in tapestry, needlepoint, or bargello stitching. Push the wire (or hole) through the eye of the needle so that the wire opens up enough to slide your thread into the wire. Then pull the wire back out of the needle’s eye, which pulls the thread through the eye.

[@user-wj6so3hx8z]

Woow you are so talented 👌🏼🤗

[@TheCherry0]

Great video, I found it so relaxing to watch. I learnt so much and I love that you also use Pinterest! Your aesthetic 😍🙌🏾 I definitely subscribed

This is so cute

[@soraven5255]

So cute ❤️✨

[@Anythingforaly]

A little killer wasp moment 😍😍 haha jk it looks hella cute

[@hoongwailai9082]

what i learnt from my grandmother who was a seamstress is that you should put the needle into the needle threader first then only you insert your thread

[@ayseeeeeeeecik]

THANK YOU FOR THIS

[@ruthhevia9217]

WOWWWWW. BEATIFUL AND SUPER COOL THANKS FOR EXCELENTE IDEA GRETTINGS

[@plantwithrae3656]

Loved the video! The haze/matte finish over the video made it kinda hard to see the stitches but nevertheless beautiful design

[@ruthhevia9217]

WOWWWWW GENIALLLLL BEATIFUL THANKS

[@Faby07aleixo]

if you want to take the ink marks off, take the embroidery out of the hoop and put it in the washing machine in a gentle circle. It will clean it and you can still put it back on the hoop later

[@marialorca6612]

You have to do more of this videos!,

[@bennetttflowers]

For threading the needles, it's easier to put the needle on the threader first, pull the thread threw the metal hoop thing, and then pull the needle off, and its done

[@TisEyerish1]

I use graphite paper to transfer a picture to my fabric. It's similar to carbon paper, but it doesn't smudge the way carbon paper does. It can be found in hobby and craft stores and, I would imagine, also in art supply stores. It can be erased with effort, and by using a kneaded eraser, rather than a "regular" eraser.

[@boohoobums]

split the thread so instead of 6 strands, you use 2 or 3 strands of thread. Also I thread my needle by getting half the amount of thread and pull it through the hole of the needle so both ends meet. then I tie the knot w/ both ends. I'm late but hope it was helpful

[@dalishrogue3621]

Have you ever tried the frixion markers for your patterns? They are heat and friction sensitive. This means that they stay until exposed to extreme heat, like from the sun or a hairdryer

[@AkshayParmarkingofdiamonds]

cuute :D I just bought some embroidery thread today

[@ccsilv]

Please more embroidery !! 💓

[@szpaqus]

I also need the needle threader but I first put the threader through the needle's hole and then I put the thread through the threader and then pull it out :p seems to be a little easier than your method :) you're very talented and I admire your work a lot!

[@EdTejanoCaitum]

Aweee glad to be hereee tho. I also did this on my channel too. ❤🌼

[@hyun9510]

paloma: *finishes embroidery* me: 👁️👄👁️ *debating on whether i should finish mine or leave it there*

[@cerisemin]

You are the first person I've found who specifically says Aida fabric for embroidery and I bought it not knowing and I thought I was only going to be able to do cross stitch

[@bearded-cat]

it's super expensive in comparision to normal fabric. I think you can get better fabric for better price than aida and in better colours

[@xoxx.Marcelina]

thank you for linking 🥺💓

[@daley24ds]

I can’t find the link please help me x

[@mlmorales1020]

What if you tried to paint the background white or pastel pink to make it look like it’s on a flower to cover that pen smudge ☺️ just a thought 💕 lol I’m a Virgo so that smudge would NEED to be covered for me 😅

[@LondonEmbroiderySchool]

Wonderful project! The bee design is so charming. When transferring designs on to fabric you might find the 'prick and pounce' embroidery transfer method helpful. We have a few videos about this on our channel if you are interested.

[@geekieD]

Have you tried using a pilot frixion pen? It erases with heat so you can use a blow dryer.

[@lee-kx4mj]

wait oh my god when u showed the lily animal crossing hoop at the beginning i ... connected that ur the person who makes those and also the youtuber i like to watch!! i didnt know u were the same person OMG

[@mithilasworld4942]

Nice

[@geekartgirl616]

Invest in frixtion or erasable pens they will come off when ironed and then you can have a clean background even if you decide to change the design halfway

[@melissas4927]

I wish this was a slower tutorial for beginners! I love this pattern!

[@lynavila3949]

💖💖💖

[@lucyslifewithpets175]

Should I try this?

[@anivillanueva5748]

I love you job! I would like to know how long it took you to do it?

[@clairerodgers8048]

This is beautiful! What brand and shades do you use?
