APPLYING COLORED WASH

Once the threads are secured and you are happy with your stitched outlines, you can begin to add a wash to your embroidered shapes. Take a clean glass of water and mix in a little watercolor with a fairly large brush. Using the edges of the stitched thread as a guide, paint the wash within the shapes. You will find that the color bleeds through slightly but that the thread draws the paint and wash toward it, creating darker areas around the embroidery.

Play around with different colors and different levels of wash—some watery and some more concentrated in color—and then allow your piece to dry flat.
