Kente Inspiration œ Page 30 of 38 LE S S O N FO U R Brick Stitch Design area: Leaves & Stem block B, background Thread: Paternayan, Light green #613 Strands: 2 Paternayan, Medium green #612 The Brick stitch is a straight stitch over two threads, and is worked in horizontal rows. Each element is offset up or down one thread relative to its immediate neighbor. The stitch sequence is shown in 17 13 9 5 1 the diagram at right. It can be worked in either 19 15 11 7 3 direction. This stitch is used for the background of the Leaves and Stem Blocks (#3, 13, and 17). The background of these blocks is two-toned: the center strip is worked in two strands of the medium green Paternayan bracketed by a strip on either side worked in two strands of a 3 lighter green Paternayan. Block 13 is diagrammed below. The previously stitched 13 17 leaves and stems are shown in gray. The background color change occurs at the dotted line, which runs through the tips of the outer Diamond Ray Stitches. The strip on the left is 8 threads wide; the strip on the right is 9 threads wide. In order to fit better around the central motif, the Brick stitch is rotated by 90 degrees, as shown in the diagram. You may need to rotate your frame 90 degrees to stitch and lay the yarn comfortably. Place a waste knot about an inch and a half below —1“ and come up at —1“ to start the sequence. -

Unavailable for a long time, nearly a decade, I believe, Marsha Parker of The Scarlet Letter reluctantly decided to reprint this reproduction. I’ve had it in my personal collection for many years and have always wanted to stitch it, and the best way for that to happen is to make it a Sampler of the Month ... so here it is! Here’s what Marsha writes about this sampler: Circa 1820, originally worked on fine tammy (wool) cloth with silk flosses, these two separate samplers were bound together, back to back, with pink grosgrain ribbon edging. They are quite compact yet comprehensive in scope, with wonderfully varied and detailed motifs including a cat on a cushion, a house, peacocks, butterflies, birds, dogs, and many flowering plants. The Scarlet Letter model was stitched over 1 on 35c similar to the original. However, you should stitch it on whatever is most pleasurable for you. Debra of our Attic staff let the 35-over-one get in the way of adding this sampler to her collection over 10 years ago, and she regretted it ever since. -
Basic Blackwork Class – HL Anja Snihová Camarni
Basic Blackwork Class – HL Anja Snihová Camarni I’m including in this handout a couple of different ways of explaining “how-to” in blackwork, because not every explanation works for every person. Also, please excuse the crass commercial plugs. I didn’t have time to completely re-write, so pretend that this somebody else’s. Which it is! Anja and MaryAnne are not the same person. <grin> MaryAnne Bartlett is a 21st century woman, making a living by writing and researching, designing and selling blackwork designs and products. Anja Snihova’ was born in the late 14th century and due to the potions that her alchemist husband makes, survived into the early 17th century! Beginning Blackwork Blackwork is a counted thread technique made popular in England in the 1500's by Catharine of Aragon, the Spanish first wife of King Henry VIII of England. It was immortalized in the incredibly detailed portraits done by the court painter, Hans Holbein, whose name is give to the stitch used, which is just a running stitch that doubles back on itself at the other end of its "journey". Blackwork can be anything from a simple line drawing to the complex pattern of #10 below, and on to designs so complex no one seems to know how to do them! It was usually done with silk thread on a white even-weave linen, and despite the name of the technique, was done in every colour of the rainbow, although black was the most popular colour, followed by red and blue. The most peculiar thing about this technique is that, done properly, the design repeats on both the right and wrong sides of the fabric, making it perfect for collars, cuffs, veils and ribbons where both sides need to look nice!

American Quilts
CATALOGUE AMERICAN QUILTS 1819 -- 1948 From the Museum Collection Compiled by Mildred Davison The Art Institute of Chicago, Department of Decorative Arts Exhibition April 20, 1959 - October 19, 1959 AMERICAN QUILTS 1819 - 1948, FROM THE MUSEUM COLLECTION The Art Institute of Chicago, April Z0 1 1959 --October 19, 1959 Although patchwork has been known and practised since ancient times, nowhere has it played such a distinctive and characteristic part as in the bed covers of early America where it added the finishing touches to eighteenth and nineteenth century bed chambers. The term "patchwork" is used indiscriminately to include the pieced and the appliqued quilts. Pieced quilts are generally geometric in pattern being a combination of small patches sewn together with narrow seams. The simplest form of pieced pattern is the eight-pointed star formed of diamond shaped patches. This was known as the Star of Le Moyne, named in honor of Jean Baptiste Le Moyne who founded New Orleans in 1718, and from it was developed numerous others including all of the lily and tulip designs. In applique quilts, pieces were cut to form the pattern and appliqued to a back - ground material with fine hemming or embroidery stitches, a method which gave a wider scope for patterns. By 1850, applique quilts reached such a degree of elaboration that many years were spent in their making and they were often intend ed for use as counterpanes. The most common fabrics for quilts were plain and figured calicoes and chintzes with white muslin..., The source of these materials in early times and pioneer communities was the scrap bag.
