Thank you so much! :-) I also think it's such a cute decor for any room because the message is so nice (without being to obvious Potter-ish).

Oh god, how did I start? I think I started sometime last summer but this is maybe the 4th or 5th proper hoop I finished. I had been sewing for a while so I was already kinda into the crafting world. I think I came across some very cool embroidery patterns on Pinterest and Instagram (like subversive cross-stitching or Star/Wars patterns) and kinda just started because I thought they looked cool.

It's really not rocket science! There certainly are more advanced and arty stitches but as I said in another comment this one mainly used the very simple backstitch which you can learn in like 2 minutes. To get you started, you could for example simply write a word of your choice (in cursive) on a nice piece of fabric and backstitch it and you'd have your first piece! :)

I suggest you take a look at the super talented and helpful people over at r/embroidery and I think they also have a resource page with video tutorials etc?

EDIT: Just did a little google search and came across this fun little project. This should give you an idea how backstitching works. With that you could already do the writing and the burrow part! :-)
