How to Hand-Embroider a Swaddle Blanket

Follow along and I share how to create these easy and beautiful gifts. Find my favorite supplies below! Font created using Canva: This is the ’Harmonie’ font, which is free! Supplies Needed: Swaddle Blanket (more on this below)- Sugar House Swaddle or Amazon Water Soluble Stabilizer for Embroidery- .This brand has been my favorite! This size roll can be used for many, many projects. It’s also toxin-free and safe for babies! Embroidery Hoop (10“-12“)- I used the 12“ in this project. Needle and embroidery floss (whatever you prefer here is fine). I used 2 little skeins for my size name. Marking pen (any kind is fine- does not have to be water-soluble). More on the blankets: Double gauze is soft, snuggly, and great for swaddles! While this tutorial will work for any type of swaddle blanket, you can purchase double gauze material, hem the edges and now you have a swaddle! A little cheat that I’ve found- buy an already-made swaddle (which is what I always do) and embroider it. I purchase all of my swaddles from Sugar House Swaddles- they’re fantastic quality, big (47“x47“), come in a variety of modern colors, and are inexpensive. I can’t buy the fabric and make it for this price, so I purchase it from them. And no... I do not get paid to advertise for just think they’re that great! Amazon also has many great swaddles that are 100% organic muslin cotton and inexpensive. Find the tutorial for this on my blog at: and
