  • The Wonderful World of Brazilian Embroidery
    The Wonderful World of Brazilian Embroidery And Why You May Want to Know More The number one thing you should know is that if you know how to do surface embroidery, you already know how to do Brazilian Embroidery! Stitched by a Novice Brazilian Embroider Copyright BDEIG 2015 Brazilian Embroidery started in Brazil (but I bet you knew that) in the 1960’s Copyright BDEIG 2015 By the early 1990’s, B.E. was being done on all continents except Antartica. B.E. is recognized internationally as a unique type of embroidery. Copyright BDEIG 2015 It is the threads that make Brazilian Embroidery unique. B.E. threads are z-twist Rayon threads. These threads have a vibrancy and luster not found in other types of embroidery threads. Z-Twist S-Twist Copyright BDEIG 2015 These beautiful threads are not stranded, but come in different weights and textures. They are usually ‘straightened’ before being used. The Z-Twist only matters on three stitches – the Stem Stitch, the Outline Stitch, and the Bullion Stitch Copyright BDEIG 2015 Because it is washable, B.E. is great on clothing. Copyright BDEIG 2015 Individual designs can become quilt blocks. Copyright BDEIG 2015 B. E. is a great embellishment for Crazy Quilts . Copyright BDEIG 2015 . .or B.E. can be the primary theme of a Crazy Quilt Copyright BDEIG 2015 B.E. pieces can be Elegant . Copyright BDEIG 2015 . or B.E.

  • Editorial Calendar 2020
    PRESERVING THE LEGACY OF NEEDLEWORK Editorial Calendar 2020 There are stories to be told, and PieceWork readers want to read them. Whether it’s a personal account of a master knitter (“Bertha Mae Shipley: A Navajo Knitter”) or a well-researched article on the embroidery that adorned alms purses (“Charitably Chic: The Eighteenth-Century Alms Purse”), PieceWork is the place to share these stories. People who care about handwork and who value its past and present role in the ongoing human story are PieceWork magazine’s core audience. PieceWork explores the personal stories of traditional makers and what they made and investigates how specific objects were crafted and the stories behind them. In-depth how-to techniques and step-by-step projects make the traditions come alive for today’s knitters, embroiderers, lacemakers, and crocheters. Beginning with the magazine’s inception in 1993, we have explored numerous needlework traditions and needleworkers. We’ve covered the prosaic—mending samplers—and the esoteric—the Pearly Kings and Queens of London. The stories have been poignant—the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire; inspiring—Safe Return Mittens; and entertaining—Rattlesnake Kate. Beginning with the Fall 2018 issue, PieceWork changed frequency from a bimonthly publication to a quarterly. The biggest bonus with this change was the addition of more editorial pages, allowing us to continue and expand upon PieceWork’s unusual blend of the elements behind a handwork tradition—who did it, how it was done, and why. Future issues will include core sections for techniques, including knitting, lace, embroidery, and crochet. Beyond these sections, there will be a wide variety of other needlework techniques.

I use Adobe Photoshop to turn my photographs into ink style drawings, but if Adobe Photoshop is not available, there is a free programme called Gimp. www.gimp.org This can be downloaded and works in a similar manner to Adobe Photoshop. Tutorials for both Gimp and Photoshop are widely available on the internet and by clicking on to www.youtube.com How do you make a start on changing a photograph into a line drawing? Let’s follow the process in simple stages to turn a photograph of a bridge in an industrial area into a line drawing suitable for blackwork embroidery. a.

  • Basic Stitches and Information for Brazilian Embroidery
    Basic Stitches and Information for Brazilian Embroidery What is Brazilian Embroidery? Why is this dimensional needlework known as Brazil- ian embroidery? Because the rayon threads used were originally manufactured in Brazil and the dimen- sional techniques using them, although used for cen- turies in Europe, came to us along with the thread from Brazil. These rayon threads are manufactured in shaded and variegated colors as well as solids. Now the threads are manufactured here in the United States by EdMar Co. Threads for Brazilian Embroidery The seven different weights currently manufactured by EdMar Co. are listed below: NOVA - heavy, medium twist, 6 ply The 1 meter strand length is excellent for most Brazil- LOLA - medium weight and twist, 3 ply ian embroidery.

In addition to tying a BOUCLE - heavy, knotted texture knot, it is helpful to fray out the end of the thread be- CIRE - medium weight, slight twist, 3 ply yond the knot about ¼-½” to keep it from untying itself in use or washing.

  • Introduction to Mountmellick Embroidery
    An IntroductIon to MountMellIck EmbroIdery By Liz Almond of Blackwork Journey Irish Mountmellick embroidery was developed around 1825 by Johanna Carter, who taught it to a group of women and girls. It uses matt white cotton threads on white cotton sateen fabric with a slight sheen. There are no open spaces, eyelets, drawn or pulled areas in this style of embroidery, but dense areas of embroidery created by a wide variety of threads and stitches. The plants featured in the design, were those that were found around the town of Mountmellick and included blackberries, oak, fern, dog roses and shamrocks. This style of embroidery is textured and tactile which contrasts with many of the other whitework techniques, such as Ayrshire work, which is densely embroidered on very fine fabric. Mountmellick Work “Embroidery Book” Mary Thomas 1936 Finding the correct material and threads for a new project can be difficult, especially if the materials used are rather obscure. I wanted to use traditional threads and materials which I obtained from Empress Mills, Colne, Lancashire, UK (www.empressmills.co.uk) They are an old established English company from an area that once produced the finest cotton in the world and they still serve clients from across the world. Materials: Medium and heavy weight Mountmellick fabric The fabric needs to be heavy enough to support the weight of the stitching and to withstand frequent washing which white embroidery on white requires. Use the medium weight fabric and pre-wash it before drawing the design with either a water soluble pen or an HB pencil.
