DIY Embroidered Sunglasses!

Start by drawing out a pattern. Each cross stitch has four holes, forming a square, so the pattern will look like a grid. After the pattern is drawn out on piece of paper, copy the pattern with a felt tip marker on the sunglasses – don’t forget to make sure the design doesn’t obstruct your vision. Thread the needle with embroidery floss – make sure the head of the needle is small enough to fit through the holes. Tie a double knot at the end of the floss and snip off any excess. Thread the floss through the holes, following the pattern. Start from the upper left corner down to the lower right corner. Start the next stitch so it uses two of the same holes as the previous.
