  • Kristen Gula of Gulush Threads shows us the easiest way to transfer your embroidery patterns - with nothing but a pencil! Then, she shows you how to transfer a pattern onto darker fabric using a light source.
    Have an iPad? Kristen also shows you how to turn your iPad into a lightbox without buying an app!
    Head over to Patreon ( / gulush ) to snatch up the Coraline Petals pattern used in this video for just $1 and then get ready to transfer your first floral embroidery project by snatching up these materials:
    Embroidery Hoop: bit.ly/2FsEIrR
    Fabric: amzn.to/2L1lmsr
    No. 2 Pencil: amzn.to/2AKDOTV
    White Colored Pencil: amzn.to/2CnFbI8
    Ipad Pro: amzn.to/2D9DKib
    Make sure to tag any progress photos on social media with #STITCHVENTURE so I see (and feature) them! I can't wait to see what you make!

      regular embroidery thread is six stranded, divisible, and looks smoother when stitched. pearl cotton is two piece of thread twisted together. the thread looks bumpier than the regular embroidery thread. I'd say start with the regular embroidery floss

    Hi! Thank you for the tutorial. Does it matter if you trace the pattern onto the fabric before putting it into the hoop or is it better to put it in the hoop first?

    • @Gulush
      @Gulush  3 роки тому +1

      Always better to put it in the hoop. You need to have the fabric as tight as possible when you are tracing!

  • @ingejustavanderhelm5208
    @ingejustavanderhelm5208 3 роки тому +1

    Hi Kristen, great video, because you get right to it! Thanks a lot! :)
    I was wondering, after you traced the pattern with a pencil on the fabric, will the pencil traces stay on the fabric properly? I mean, will it not fade away or get messy while embroidering? Kind regards from Amsterdam

    • @Gulush
      @Gulush  3 роки тому +2

      Not a silly question at all! The pencil does stay on the fabric, but it doesn't affect the embroidery (been using this method for 8 years now). If you do have pencil marks you need to get rid of - use a tide pen on the marks! Hope this helps. :)

    • @Gulush
      @Gulush  3 роки тому

      might be difficult due to the thickness of the denim - this is when I use a water soluble transfer paper (like DMC's Magic Paper). You either draw or print on it, then peel and stick it to the fabric. Stitch it and soak in water to remove the paper. Hope this helps!

      In the video, It doesn't say a step (my ipad actually didnt give the option to me when we were filming so I accidentally skipped over it and we didn't catch it until way later in post), but if you watch the video - the screen capture in the video shows that after you hit the button five times and right before you hit start, you need to turn off the touch option. Hopefully that helps, let me know if it doesn't!
