border embroidered with running stitch worked as a mirror
MATERIALS
Aida fabric
Embroidery threads in red, dull pink and light pink
Sewing needle
scissors
PROCEDURE
To embroider mirror-like design, first we work on one part (in this case, the upper part) and the the other part.
WE will mark the centre of the fabric. From this point, we will begin the embroidery, as always at the centre row, which will serve as a baseline for the design.
Here is the centre of the fabric marked by pins
With the red thread, we pull the needle out at the centre of the fabric.
WE go up 2 spaces and we run 4 spaces to the left. Here, we insert the needle and we pull it out a space ahead.
We will make 4 running stitches leaving 1 space between stitches.
