Embroidery lesson with Fashion Trainer Kaara
Embroidery:
open the hoop by loosening the nob, the back part will remove, then add the back of the hoop in the inside of the shirt then seal it tight by placing the hoop with the nob on top
thread your needle with 3 to 6 strands of threads, make a knot at the end of the long tail, leaving a shorter end to see when you need to refill the needle with thread
remove back part of the sticker to stick it to your clothes
use split stitch & satin stitch outline and fill in the sticker design
to prevent the sticker from lifting up for your first stitches use your thumb to hold the sticker down
after completing your embroidery, now place your embroidery under water for 3-5 minutes then let it dry before wearing
split stitch: make one stitch the size of rice by bringing your needle from the back of the shirt to the from and then extended your needle to a point forward, drop the needle down and then bring it back up in the middle of the first stitch. repeat: move up and then across, to go back to the back and then bring up in the middle of the previous stitch.
satin stitch: make one stitch the size of the space you are filling in, when you have the needle in the back, bring it up next to the previous point you made. when you bring it up go across as close as possible to the previous stitch, and drop the needle down next to it. repeat this process until fill in the space.

important
as part of creating your mood, your aura, I recommend to grab your headphones and listen to lo-fi music vibe, feel, let the lo-fi sound guide you.
set up:
Choose to paint during daylight or nighttime
Pick a bandana size you will like
Mix with 1:1 ratio of paint to Golden GAC 900 in your painting containers
If you’ll like to set a mood or create a chill ambience, play music. A lofi playlist is recommended.
painting:
Paint a silhouette, a shape you will like first. It can be fireflies, butterflies, a basket of fruit or diablo cojuelo.
Then fill in the areas you will like to fill in with the paint
This is very much freestyle and up to you. If you know how to screen print fabric or have a friend that screen prints. I suggest to draw your design, screen print your design and then fill it in painting.
After you are done, allow the paint to dry and then iron it. Wash after 4 days.
Ready to wear
