If you want to start embroidering and want to equip yourself, you will need at least:

  • 1 needle;
  • Several spools of threads of different colors;
  • Embroidery fabric;
  • An embroidery hoop.

You will also need to ask yourself these questions to choose the right material:

  • What kind of project am I going to get into?
  • Which needle is needed? (depending on fabric and yarn size)
  • What size yarn should I buy?
  • What yarn colors go well together?
  • What canvas should I buy?

Mistakes are frequent when one is not initiated. In addition, the quantities offered in stores will often exceed your needs. You will find large fabric coupons, buy more threads than necessary to be sure to match them well… Then, you will look for a model to reproduce. Again, it will be necessary to find out how to transfer it to the canvas and the supplies to be able to do it. You can trace it. For this, you will need to invest in an erasable fabric marker or chalk. Your basket can climb well above 25 or even 30 euros!

If you opt for a French Savoir-Faire kit , you will have all the necessary equipment: a needle, matching threads, the canvas, the embroidery hoop, and a turnkey project. And everything fits in a 13 x 18 cm box. You will have the right material in the right quantities for maximum creativity! Besides, you will have a few threads left to have fun on another medium if you want.
