Given my recent French knot blouse and light box posts, you might have noticed that I’m on a bit of an embroidery kick. So, this this bullion knot embroidery tutorial from Kathy at The Unbroken Thread definitely fits right in with my current stitching obsession.

To learn how to make bullion knots of your own, head on over to The Unbroken Thread to see the full how-to!
