Start this project by making note of where the wood frame of your canvas is located. Then using a ruler, mark out the spacing of your embroidery floss stripes. I marked about every 1/4 of an inch.
Next, draw out a blocked version of each letter you are going to embroider. I wrote out the word, HOPE.



Start your embroidering coming in from the back bottom corner. From there, go straight up to the top right corner, this helps create your first straight line! From there, your needle will be at the backside of the canvas, so move over to your next mark and push through to come out on the front of your canvas. When you come to your penciled in letter, simply go in with your needle and come back out where that straight line would hit. You are creating negative space where the letters would be.

Once all four of your HOPE letters are embroidered, it’s time to add a little paint to your canvas edges. I used coordinating paint colors for mine.

You can see all the color that these Embroidered Canvas Art can bring to a space! And what is better to display miniature Canvas Art than Mini Wooden Easels!! The canvas fits just perfectly on these little easels and are the perfect touch.
Be sure to check out the other Supply of the Month projects using 4″ x 4″ Canvases.
