Getting Started

Jessica reviews the Modern Cameo design, including options for stumpwork or surface embroidery only, and stitching on cotton or linen fabric. Then she goes over the supplies you'll need and how to transfer the design to the background fabric.
Flowers & Flat Leaves
11:32
After hooping up and transferring the design, start stitching the two-tone flat leaves for the flower crown. After that, Jessica guides you through woven-wheel roses, French knots, and detached chain stitch petals to complete the crown.
The Satin-Stitch Face

Next, start stitching the cameo hair and face. Get Jessica's tips for making long parallel satin stitches with single strands of floss. You'll see how to work the fine details and troubleshoot any mistakes.
Stumpwork
13:17
Discover the magic of stumpwork as you stitch wired slips (embroidered leaves built over a wire shape on a separate hoop). Afterwards, learn to cut the stitched wired slips from the hoop, then insert the dimensional wire leaves securely into the main embroidery to complete the design.
