About the video: Embossed stitches 1
Overview
“In this lesson I will teach you about my stitches how to embroider three relief stitches. I like these stitches a lot to intervene patches because they give the piece dimensionality, they stand out a lot.

These different effects will serve to cover stains, to decorate or incorporate patches and with them to be able to repair holes.”
In this video lesson Ofelia & Antelmo addresses the topic: Embossed stitches 1, which is part of the Domestika online course: Embroidery: Clothing Repair. Learn the Visible Mending technique and revive your garments using original embroidery pieces and patches that express your style.

Ofelia & Antelmo
A course by Ofelia & Antelmo
Ofelia & Antelmo is a project created by Gabriela Martínez—designer and textile artist—in 2017 that started out as a contemporary textile art proposal presented in two formats that go hand in hand: textile art and wearable art.
Textile art is the starting point of Gabriela's process, in which she explores all her ideas for colors, textures, stitches, and effects, then seeks to bring them to life in handmade garments with wear-resistant finishes and stitches. Her main motivation is that quality prevails over quantity, and so she creates pieces that can be inherited as a form of protest at the speed at which the world moves today.
