6 Years of BGS

Yet another year has gone by and we've somehow made it for a double release! We've finally managed to finish another of Nagisa's compilation books too after so many years! Just 2 more to go + all the other books we have TvT

After these past two years, it's pretty clear that we now really only have enough bandwidth for birthday + maybe anniversary releases... But we'll continue to do what we can to bring you the best quality releases, and we really appreciate everyone's support all this while! It's really what keeps us going 🙏

As usual, we're looking for help with our releases (especially translation), do consider reaching out to us via any of our communication channels if you're interested!

How did you learn to embroider? Are there any good videos, say on YouTube, you recommend for beginners??

Learning embroidery

I started out by imitating pictures in magazines, by looking up YouTube tutorials, and by improvising a lot.

There are many types of embroidery from all over the world. If one style ends up not being your thing, you can always look into different ones.

Embroidery resources:

My embroidery 101 post

How to secure embroidery thread

Embroidery backings

Sarah's Hand Embroidery stitch library

Sarah's Hand Embroidery YouTube channel

Embroidery by Break n' Remake: part 1 | part 2

Stitch Floral's guide to embroidery

HandiWorks' embroidery playlists

Embroidery for beginners by LoveCrafts

The Spruce Crafts' embroidery tutorials (including how to get started and 15 basic stitches)

Everyone has different learning styles, so I added different types of resources. Some of these are written articles, others are picture guides, and the rest are YouTube video's. That way you can look up textual descriptions if you ever get stuck while following a video.

Cross stitching:

If you don't like all these fancy stitches, you could also try your hand at cross stitching! It requires more focus (in my experience) as it involves a lot of counting, but the base stitch itself is easier.

Check out these tutorials by Phil's Next Kick, Made By Marzipan and Stitched Modern to get started.
