The amazing health benefits of practicing embroidery

  • Lowers blood pressure

    Embroidery calms the nervous system, promotes relaxation, and contributes to lower blood pressure, reducing stress for improved well-being.

  • Regulates breath

    Engaging in embroidery encourages mindful, rhythmic stitching, promoting focused breathing patterns that can induce a sense of calm and relaxation.

  • Calms nervous system

    Embroidery, with its repetitive and rhythmic hand movements, engages the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation and reducing stress levels.

  • Form deep social bonds

    Our online community fosters connection through a shared creative space, encouraging communication and supporting the exchange of ideas, nurturing deep social bonds among members.

Waste Knot Scissor Review

The shape of the scissors are a great way to safely snip threads close to the work. The trouble with these particular scissors is that they do not open and close smoothly. Also the colour of the scissors makes it more difficult to see the threads. I use a pair the same size and shape but are stainless steel and they make seeing the threads much easier. They also have a smoother operation.

Favorite Scissors

These are my "go to", favorite scissors. Comfortable in my hand, got a second pair to keep in my travel sewing pouch. Highly recommend them!
