DIY Personalized, Embroidered Napkins for Thanksgiving

DIY Personalized, Embroidered Napkin with Clover's Embroidery Stitching Tool - Country Peony

Hello everyone! Elizabeth here, and I am the DIY and Craft blogger behind Country Peony.

Thanksgiving is all about bringing loved ones together, and today I am so excited to partner with Clover to showcase a really sweet way to honor your guests with personalized napkins for your Thanksgiving table. Today we are creating a custom embroidery napkin using Clover’s amazing Embroidery Stitching Tool.

Clover’s Embroidery Stitching Tool, also known as Punch Needle Embroidery Tool, allows you to easily create punch needle embroidery. Punch needle embroidery is when a special tool, like Clover’s Embroidery Stitching Tool, pierces through a thicker fabric like canvas, denim or cotton on one side and leaves a loop. The stitches on one side are very structured, and the loops on the other side are more loose allowing you to play with the application of your stitches and loops to create a truly custom and whimsical embroidered piece. Your finished project can be used as part of your home decor as a wall hanging or pillow cover, or as part of a gift like a keychain or pin. Here is a Mother’s Day gift that I created last year using Clover’ Embroidery Stitching Tool. The possibilities are endless!

For today’s project, we will focus on the side of the napkin with the clean, structured lines to create a sweet and simple embroidered name. This simple embellishment is twofold as it is the prettiest place card, and can act as a sweet gift for the guest as well. Pair the napkins with a silk ribbon, and dress the table with some seasonal flowers and pumpkins and you have a beautiful Thanksgiving tablescape.

For your convenience, I created a step-by-step video so you can see how I made the embroidered letters using Clover’s Embroidery Stitching Tool. Then continue below to follow the step-by-step images to make your own DIY Personalized, Embroidered Napkins.
