My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Ribbon Embroidery

18 years ago

Hello,

I want to try ribbon embroidery but I can not purchase the correct type of ribbon in the city I live in. Does anyone know if I can substitute thin silk ribbon for embroidery ribbon?

Thanks, Thistle Garden
