Embroidered Quilts

Category: <span>Embroidered Quilts</span>

Adding embroidery and simple stitches to quilts is popular with fiber artists. From table runners to full-size quilts, hand stitching on a quilt adds interest and texture.

Pull out embroidery floss and add the hand embroidery to a quilt top. Work on individual quilt blocks one at a time on road trips or binge watching shows for finished embroidered blocks.
