Step-by-Step Guide:
Step 1: Choose the location of the heart symbol
Decide where you want to place the heart symbol on the fabric. Mark the spot with a light pencil or washable marker.
Step 2: Thread the needle
Select the embroidery floss of your choice and separate it into two strands. Thread the needle and tie a knot at the end of the thread.
Step 3: Start the embroidery
Bring the needle up from the backside of the fabric at the starting point of the heart symbol. Start stitching from the center of the heart symbol. You can start with either the top or bottom of the heart symbol.
Step 4: Stitch the heart symbol
To stitch the heart symbol, make a straight stitch from the center of the heart symbol to the top point of the heart. Bring the needle back to the center and stitch to the bottom point of the heart. Bring the needle back to the center again and stitch to the other side of the heart, forming a symmetrical heart shape.
Step 5: Fill the heart symbol
Once you have stitched the outline of the heart, you can fill it with a satin stitch or a seed stitch. A satin stitch is a series of straight stitches placed next to each other to fill the shape. A seed stitch is a series of small stitches placed randomly within the shape.
Step 6: Finish the embroidery
Once you have filled the heart with the desired stitch, knot the thread at the back of the fabric to finish the embroidery. Cut off the excess thread.
