DIY Cross Stitch Badge Tutorial ~ UK Wedding Blog ~ Whimsical Wonderland Weddings

 

Afternoon lovelies, that’s right i finally got my craft on again :-) I spent a lovely afternoon yesterday sat in the sun making this little badge.

This DIY is super simple even for newbie sewers, cross stitch is so easy. I think cute, quirky and personalised cross stitch badges would be so cute at a wedding. Use them as decor, as favours, as buttonholes, the options are indeed endless. I used a black backdrop with a simple heart i sewed freestyle, but you could use a different coloured fabric, initials or even simple shapes. Just have fun.

I would recommend picking up a badge maker or badge blanks if you are making quite a few of these rather than my cardboard backing, a staple gun could be an alternative to the glue too….
