Embroidery is the use of needles and threads of varing thickness, with or without beads or other baubles, to lay down a logo or pattern onto fabric using various sewing stitches.
Embroidery is a great way to show off your device. It can also be used to decorate girdles, sleeves, bodices, necklines or pouches.
