Pebbles Sampler patterns for Modern Crewelwork class QuiltCon 24
Use a washable pen to mark up the pattern above on to your linen square. If you can’t see the pattern lines easily through your fabric try taping to a window, your computer screen with the light turned up, or go over the pattern lines with a thicker pen. The applique pattern is just a guide and does not need to be too accurate.
Or make a quick and easy light box to help with your tracing. Take a small shallow card-board box with no lid and pop your phone inside it with the torch function switched on. Place a large square patchwork ruler on the box and trace your pattern on top of this!
Once marked up insert into the embroidery hoop. Make sure your linen is as tight as possible, it should feel like a drum skin. Use a slotted screwdriver to obtain the correct tightness on the fixing screw.
