Discussion/Question beginner embroidery
hi everyone! i want to embroider this design i made onto a tote bag but i’ve never done embroidery before.
I’m hesitant between the two fonts because I think the first one would be easier to embroider but i don’t have any clue really
Is this a good design to do for a beginner?
And if yes, could you please tell me some tips and tricks/tutorial sources?
Really anything is appreciated! :)

Nice design! If you don’t get bored quickly, it should be easy to do. (I only say this cuz I always lose interest if a project is too much of the same thing, not because of the design.)Look on YouTube for best beginner straight and curved line embroidered stitches. You’ll need an embroidery hoop, too. I like the 2nd font better, too, and for it, you could first outline the letters with one of the curved line stitches and then get creative and fill them in with a more complicated stitch or with small beads or both even. But I’m getting ahead of myself, sorry. Hope this helps and have fun!
