Embroiderer behind Hoops & Expectations

Teacher

Hello I'm Cristina! I'm the embroiderer behind Hoops & Expectations, a geek and chic Star Wars fan addicted to pistachio ice cream and crazy about embroidery.

MY STORY

I was born and raised in Barcelona, a city that I love, but to which I said goodbye some years ago when I decided to live abroad and look for new experiences.
I've lived in a variety of countries such as Norway, Chile, India or the United States, where I came for love, but that's another story ;)

WHAT I DO

Embroidery has always been one of my favorite hobbies. I am self-taught, I learned when I was nine years old and since then, I never stopped.

To bring embroidery to people, I decided to create DIY embroidery kits. I make embroidery workshops too and now I can also share ... See full profile

And remember to not the end of the threat starting from behind your hope. Create a single state, leave a space and come up with your needles. Go back down again in the same space of your previous stitch and repeat. Every state travels backwards. That's why we call it the back stitch. Continuous stitching. Just follow the lines. When you run out of threat, Turn over the whole wave your needle between the threat and create enough for corpse or small details. Use the small speeches this state is perfect for out like. 5. 5.
