Embroidering the Seasons


Embroidering the four seasons in undergarments is easy to do. Use basic designs such as a leaf, snowflake, sun, tulip, and a butterfly to symbolize the seasons. You can use different color embroidery threads or one color for your embroidery. In this example, yellow embroidery thread was used to embroider the sun onto one brief underwear. The sun was embroidered on both sides of the underwear. 

Stencils with small shapes can make it easier to make the embroidered design onto undergarments. The stencils can be found at any arts and craft store. However, there are free stencils online that can be reduced for embroidering. I find it easier to use stencils for doing embroidery. Here is the tutorial for embroidering the sun onto one pair of briefs. 



Materials:

Embroidery Thread

Embroidery Needle

Several pairs of panties

Scissors

Embroidery hoop (optional)

Fabric marker/pen 

Stencil (optional)


Use one clean brief underwear and a stencil to make the sun. Draw the sun with a fabric pen and a stencil onto the brief. Repeat the same step for the other corner of the brief. Insert embroidery thread onto an embroidery needle. Then, insert the needle onto the outline of the circle. 

Follow the lines as you stitch the circle. After the circle is embroidered, follow the lines to make the rays of the sun. The rays of the sun do not have to be embroidered the same. Continue embroidering to make the rays of the sun. Repeat the same steps for the other corner of the brief. 

Like all embroidered garments, wash them inside out. Follow the instructions of the garments for the water temperature.  Make sure all of the leftover thread is cut short and not sticking out from the inside of the brief.  Nonetheless, you will enjoy wearing your cute embroidered undergarments. Have fun embroidering.
