  1. Hi,

    I am a complete beginner with hand embroidery. Your site is very informative, simple and makes things look more interesting.
    I especially like the information you provided about the materials for embroidery.
    I am struggling with transferring the design onto the fabric. I wonder if you can help me please.
    I have mixed the powder and the kerosene but the powder is not passing on to the fabric very well, only the kerosene is going through. I am not sure why. I think I am not able to get the ratio of the powder and the kerosene correctly.
