It is difficult to say who and when invented to decorate clothes and linen with satin stitching. This type of embroidery is found in different cultures. The smooth surface is one-sided and two-sided, flat and embossed, slotted. It is often combined with other types of embroidery.
It is necessary
- Cotton fabric
- Embroidery hoop
- Threads "floss"
- Cotton bobbin thread
- Wide eye needle
- Pencil
- Ball pen
- Tracing paper
- Copy paper
Instructions
Step 1
Transfer the drawing to tracing paper. Place the ironed cloth face up on the table. Place a sheet of carbon paper on it, then tracing paper with a pattern. Circle the drawing with a ballpoint pen. Remove the tracing paper and carbon paper.
Step 2
Hoop the fabric over the hoop. Thread a floss in 1 addition into the needle and sew the elements of the pattern with a needle-forward seam. Sew the outline of the pattern with fine satin stitches. The stitches should fit snugly together. When sewing a one-sided surface, the stitches on the right side are long and straight. They are performed as follows. Bring the needle to the front side. Pull the thread so that you have a long, straight stitch from one end of the element to the other. Insert the needle, pull the thread to the wrong side. Insert the needle from the wrong side at a distance of 1-2 threads from the previous puncture, pull the thread to the right side.
On the seamy side, you get points along the contour of the drawing. From the seamy side, the needle is inserted at a distance of one or two threads from the previous stitch strictly along the contour line. For double-sided surface, the stitches on both sides will be the same After sewing the first stitch on the right side in the same way as for the one-sided surface, pull the thread along the wrong side to where you started the first stitch and insert the needle next to it. Pull the thread to the right side.
Step 3
Perform flooring. To do this, take cotton bobbin threads and sew the pattern element with parallel lines with a needle-forward seam. The direction of the lines should be perpendicular to the position of the stitches of the surface. After that, embroider the element of the pattern with the main threads.
Step 4
Try to embroider the most common stitching elements. Any element of the pattern in the form of a circle is suitable for the "donut". Sew the circle along the contour with a needle-forward seam. Make the flooring. Embroider satin stitches on the deck. The "leaf" is performed in the same way. When embroidering this element, it is necessary to take into account that the flooring is laid along, and the main stitches - across the element. If you are doing a "split leaf", then you begin to embroider it in the same way as a simple leaf. At the bifurcation point of the leaf, make two parallel stitches. First fill in the whole part of the leaf with the flooring and stitching. After that, fill in one part of the leaf first. Puncture between parallel stitches.
Step 5
Sew the hole. To do this, you need an awl and cotton thread. Poke a hole in the fabric. Overcast the edges with cotton thread. The execution of the "flower" also begins with a hole. After you have made it and swept it over, embroider the flower petals in the same way that you embroidered the "donuts".
