Care
Hand embroidery on velvet and silk asks for a little care.
- Follow the label on your piece first. As a rule, hand embroidery does not survive a washing machine.
- Do not iron over the embroidery. Steam from the reverse of the fabric instead.
- Store on a wide hanger, away from direct sunlight, so the pile of the velvet does not flatten.
- A loose thread is normal on hand work. Do not pull it — trim it flush.
- Take a beaded piece to a dry cleaner and tell them it is hand embroidered with glass beads.
