Step 5Add embellishments to the images
Now you will add the embellishments to the images that you have embroidered.
First you should add the curtains to the windows. In the first photo you can see the curtains on the windows. I choose to use a plaid from the sleeves of a shirt that I had. I first zigzagged around each curtain, then I sewed each curtain on the house across the top. You will need to tack the curtains down so that they stay put. To do this you will need to hand sew.
Thread a needle. I always use a double thread to make my stitches stronger. Now tie a knot. If you have never tied a knot, it can be tricky. See the photos below for detailed steps.
For the house, I choose to add a tin roof. We often have tin roofs in Louisiana. Many people love to hear rain on a tin roof. I made the tin roof with a gray sock that had ridges, just like a real tin roof.
Finally, sew a nice button on the door for the handle.
