[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Can we hand embroider?

[Bernice Bird]

No latch hook is easier to adapt if you have a willing sighted person. My
Mom went row by row and wrote down how many of each color in order. She did
it for a lighthouse I made that was about 120 rows. My son-in-law did it for
a pattern with a pot of daisies. I also did a large picture of an eagle for
a friend that collects eagles.
I have someone divide the strands of yarn into colors, and put 1 color per
zip lock bag and label them in braille. 
I found a kit that was not even started in my stash of u f o's in the
basement.

When I was, I guess a tean, I made a latch hook, of a bird on a branch.  My
mom outlined the bird, and other parts for me to fill in.

I did a similar project. I used yarn on a mesh mat. It was a tiger, so there
was the black and orange of the tiger and blue for the background. My
husband outlined one color at a time for me to complete, and then another
one. It measured about 30 inches square.

I have done crewel, which is embroidery with yarn.  I did not follow a
pre-made design; I made up my own.  Offhand I can't think of how to follow
someone else's design, but others may know a way.
NLS has books on crewel, and possibly other kinds of embroidery.

I would like to ask how can we hand embroider and if we can follow a
previously made design on fabric?
Looking forward to your answers
Warm regards from Mexico City
