Have you ever tried removing a stain several times in the laundry and it remains on the fabric? Instead of wearing the shirt or the sweater on the label side, you can cover the stain with embroidery. You can find a printable stencil online such as Free Stencil Gallery. Once you have selected the stencil, you can begin embroidering. In this example, a snowflake stencil was printed out and used for embroidering this sweater.
Instructions:
Embroidery floss
Embroidery needle
Scissors
Snowflake stencil from Free Stencil Gallery
Sweater or t-shirt with a stain on it
Ballpoint pen or fabric marker
Begin by printing out the snowflake and cutting the stencil with scissors. Trace the snowflake onto the sweater or the t-shirt. Make sure you trace it on the area of the stain. Then, embroider the snowflake. In this example, the snowflake was embroidered with a light blue thread.
After you are done embroidering the snowflake, embroider on top of the stain. Once you are done embroidering, you will forget the sweater or t-shirt had a stain on it. You can embroider without a hoop especially if you do not want to stretch the sweater. Below is a link to print out your stencils or a snowflake so you can do this embroidery project. Happy National Embroidery Month!
