Description:
What do I mean by "Negative Space"? Well, we will be making one embroidered piece for our partner, but instead of making the embroidered part of it the main focus, you embroider all around the pattern, filling in small details to make your pattern stand out if needed. Here are some photos to show you what I mean: Just a few examples to show you, but if you need more, google "negative space embroidery". There are some really awesome ones made by folks out there. Please feel free to ask any questions. I'm on the site all the time, so you can either leave questions here or PM me. :) Images found on google and craftster.

Are we finishing this in a hoop, or however we want? I like the hoop,idea.

Is there a minimum size? I want to do a small 4 inch finished hoop. Will that work?

Sorry. Probably shouldve put that in originally. Yes please send finished in a hoop. 4 inches or larger
