How to Get Started + Embroidery Pro Tips
Painting can be done with so much more than paint, just ask Erika Tu'avao, an embroidery artist whose style has often been called 'thread painting.' Erika's distinct style is vibrant, detailed, layered, and really does appear much like a painting you'd see done with wet paint mediums.
We asked Erika how she got started with embroidery, as well as one of her most important tips. Before we dive into those videos, here are all of the supplies Erika used creating this stunning, embroidered sunset:
- Embroidery Floss, Green Tones - 80 Pieces
- 6” Bamboo embroidery hoop from the Embroidery Hoop Set
- Embroidery Floss, 35 Colors - 144 Pieces
Happy crafting, and make sure to tag us and Erika on Instagram to show us what you created!
