About Us
The tools and materials required for embroidery are mainly divided into three categories: embroidery materials, embroidery tools, and auxiliary consumables. The detailed list is as follows:
一，Embroidery materials (supplies)
1，Embroidery fabric (base fabric): The carrier for embroidery, which should be selected based on the requirements of the embroidery work. For beginners, it is recommended to use cotton and linen fabric with clear texture and a certain thickness (easy to handle); for advanced practitioners, silk, satin, etc. can be chosen (suitable for detailed embroidery).
2，Thread: The "color" used in embroidery. The most commonly used is pure cotton thread (such as DMC 25, which can be split into single or combined strands for use, suitable for most embroidery); depending on the requirements of the embroidery work, silk thread (with good luster, suitable for detailed embroidery), wool thread (suitable for three-dimensional embroidery) or metal thread (suitable for decorative embroidery) can also be selected.
一，Embroidery tools (core equipment)
1，Embroidery frame (frame): Used to fix the embroidery cloth, making the fabric tight and flat, and preventing the embroidery from deforming. It is divided into circular embroidery frames (suitable for small items, the diameter is selected according to the size of the pattern, such as 10cm - 20cm) and roll frames (suitable for large items, it can be extended, suitable for professional or large-scale embroidery).
2，Embroidery needle: It should be selected based on the thickness of the embroidery thread and the fabric. Common embroidery needles (with slender needle tips and elliptical needle noses, such as 9, 10, and 12 sizes, are suitable for detailed embroidery) and cross-stitch needles (with blunt needle tips, are suitable for cross-stitch). Fine threads should be paired with fine needles, and thick threads with thick needles.
3，Scissors: Small curved-head scissors (with slightly upward-tilted blades, suitable for trimming thread ends on the embroidery surface without damaging the embroidery) and fine-point scissors (suitable for removing stitches or trimming delicate areas).
4，Embroidery stand/basting frame: Used to support the embroidery frame, freeing up the hands (such as three-legged basting stool, table-style embroidery stand, upright embroidery stand. Choose according to personal embroidery habits and size of the embroidery work).
一，Auxiliary consumables and tools (for auxiliary operations)
1，Transfer/Drawing Tools: Water-soluble pen or heat-soluble pen (used for drawing or transferring patterns on fabric; the water-soluble pen disappears when wet, while the heat-soluble pen disappears when heated); Copy paper + Drawing pen (used for imprinting patterns).
2，Needle threading and auxiliary tools: Needle threading tool (used for threading, suitable for fine needles or thin threads); Needle holder (used for inserting needles, preventing needles from being lost or causing hand injuries); Thread cutter (used for cutting wrong stitches).
3，Storage and auxiliary tools: Thread board/ winding board (used for organizing and storing embroidery threads to prevent knotting); Bead tray (used to hold beads during bead embroidery, facilitating color matching and picking up); Glue/hot melt glue gun (used for adhering fabrics or decorations).
