Emulating Hand Stitched patterns

It's not easy to emulate hand stitched designs, but you can get close enough on some types. Creating them depends on your thread weights and projects. Quite a few can create easy ones, but some do find the more intricate shapes a bit difficult. Machine embroidery can never really emulate the beauty of hand stitched styles, but you can get fair results on some. How you create the shape will detemine whether you get double stitches and knots at times, so practicing this can assist you. Curves can requires some spacing changes and at times even reworking the motif.
