Files included

Supplies

Most stitchers already have the essentials. Here’s a simple list:

• Cotton or linen fabric (tightly woven works well)
• 6‑strand embroidery floss (DMC or equivalent)
• Embroidery hoop (3″–8″)
• Optional: light source for tracing or stabilizer for extra support

Design notes

This pattern leans into hand embroidery project without feeling rigid. The linework is clear, and your stitch choices can change the whole vibe of the finished hoop.

It’s the kind of design you can stitch over a few evenings and keep on display year-round.

If you prefer a crisp look, keep stitch length consistent and avoid overcrowding details.

Customization ideas

• Scale it smaller for a quick win, or larger for a longer, slower project.
• Vary strand count: thicker for bold texture, fewer strands for delicate shading.
• Try a different fill stitch in one area to practice a technique you’ve been curious about.
• Add a tiny initial or date near the edge to make it giftable.
• Switch the color palette to match your space—pastels, jewel tones, or neutrals all work.

The pattern gives you the roadmap; you decide how Kitchen Herbs: A Beginner’s Guide to Greenery Stitches looks when it’s finished.
