Beautiful embellishments for embroidery projects

I love hand embroidery, especially silk ribbon embroidery and it’s a beautiful way to embellish garments and accessories like tote bags and purses. It’s also lovely on heirloom projects.

Susan Schrempf’s Simple Silk Ribbon Embroidery by Machine is a fantastic book for lovers of hand and machine embroidery. With this book you can create intricate silk ribbon embroidery that looks completely hand done. Silk ribbon embroidery by machine offers all the beauty but at half the time. Schrempf shows you how with easy techniques that will work with any machine, not just embroidery machines.

What types of ways do you like to embellish your projects? Are you a fan of silk ribbon embroidery, have you done it by hand or machine? I would love to hear the details of your experiences with silk ribbon embroidery!
