In ten years, most of the toys will be gone. This one won’t.

Because let’s be honest: half of what gets bought for a first birthday is forgotten by the second. Embroider Buddy® isn’t that. It’s the one with a name stitched into it, made to be held long after the rest is packed away.

BECAUSE SOME FIRSTS DESERVE TO LAST

Plush embroidery has its own rules, and this tutorial breaks them down. We cover removing water-soluble stabilizer, adding underlay stitches, and using knock down stitches, the three techniques that separate a clean monogram from a fuzzy one.

If you've ever embroidered on plush and had the design sink or blur, this one's for you.
