FAQ
Materials
► What fabric should I use for embroidery?
Thick linen >180g (better) or any other natural fabric. If you are a beginner, choose fabrics of light color to make it easier to transfer the pattern.
► What threads should I use?
I use six-strand cotton embroidery floss, brands I use: DMC or PNK Kirov. You can use any other brand of embroidery floss, available in your country.
► What kind of needle should I buy?
Each brand has their own needle numbers. You can buy a needle DMC (embroidery) №3 or DMC (darners) №5 or Aurora (number 7).
► How do you transfer the pattern on the fabric?
I usually use carbon paper or heat erasable pen.
► What kind of carbon paper should I use?
Black or blue color. I buy it at a craft store near my house. If you doubt it, check it on a small piece of fabric. You need to trace the drawing with effort.
Shipping
► When will I receive my order? Why is the track not tracked for several days?
On average, delivery takes from 12 to 45 days. I can't affect the delivery speed. It's normal if there are no tracking updates for the international parcels for several days.
