STITCHES
Module 7

Different Embroidery Tools
1. Needles
2. Embroidery Thread
3. Embroidery Hoop
4. Embroidery Scissor
5. Embroidery Fabric
• Needles

Any needle can draw a piece of thread through fabric, but certain
types do certain jobs better. Using the right needle for the job will not
only make embroidery less frustrating for newbies, but it’s also way
more likely to deliver better results.
2. Embroidery Thread

is a yarn that is manufactured specifically for embroidery and other


forms of needlework.
3. Embroidery Hoop
it stretches the fabric tight, it can help preserve
the structure of the fabric weave, which in turn
will help keep your stitches neat.
4. Embroidery Scissor
different from regular scissors. They have smaller
and usually thinner blades that are extremely sharp,
and they normally come to a very pointy point.
Most are around 3.5 to 4” in length, with blades that
range from 1 to 2.5” long. The main reason to use
them is, that they can get really close to the ground
fabric to cleanly cut those threads.
5. Embroidery Fabric
a cloth used in embroidery and
these are available in different
thread counts and in cotton, linen,
and blends.
