Learn beautiful strawberry embroidery with this free pattern and step-by-step tutorial from Happy Jasu and add some delicious charm to your summer projects! These cute, realistic strawberries, complete with leaves and tiny flowers, are perfect for jazzing up zipper pouches, bags, headbands, or your favorite summer clothes. Or, you can simply leave them in a hoop to display as lovely summer wall decor in any room.
You’ll get to try out some neat stitches: fishbone stitch and straight stitch form the leaves. You’ll embroider the strawberries themselves with a raised stem stitch band and a straw (yep, a straw!) to create those wonderful textured stitches. A popcorn lazy daisy stitch makes their little stems. For the tiny white strawberry flowers, you’ll use the elegant bullion ring stitch and French knot stitch. It’s a truly wonderful summer hand embroidery project that you’ll love!
