Tying refers to the technique of using thread, Comforters yarn or ribbon to pass through all three layers of the comforter at reqular intervals. These "ties" hold the layers together during use and especially when the comforter is washed. A warm covering made of two layers of cloth filled with a material with Quilts loft and stitched together in lines or patterns. The top layer is typically pieced together and the bottom is one solid layer. Process of stitching together two layers of fabric, usually with a soft, thick substance placed between them. The layer of wool, cotton, or other stuffing provides insulation; the stitching keeps the stuffing evenly distributed and also provides opportunity for artistic expression. Quilting has long been used for clothing in many parts of the world, especially Quilting in the Far and Middle East and the Muslim regions of Africa. It reached its fullest development in the U.S., where it was at first popularly used for petticoats and comforters.

  • Advanced Silk Shading
    ROYAL SCHOOL OF NEEDLEWORK 2019-2020 ACADEMIC YEAR DIPLOMA ADVANCED SILK SHADING Traditionally worked with silk thread on silk or linen fabric, but now more usually worked in stranded cotton thread. Silk is still the most usual background fabric but a variety of other fabrics may be used. For Advanced Silk Shading you may work EITHER an animal, bird, fish or reptile; OR a tapestry shaded human figure. SILK SHADED ANIMAL OR BIRD AIM – To demonstrate an advanced level of technical skill by working a realistic and naturally shaded embroidery of an animal, fish, reptile or bird using Long and Short Stitch with one strand of stranded cotton (or fine silk thread). To utilise shading and stitch direction to accurately depict musculature, fur, scales and clearly defined feathers as appropriate. Please note: All preparatory work (e.g. outlines, drawings, stitch plans, original source material) MUST be handed in for assessment or the work will not be marked. DESIGN Try to come with some ideas for a design and bring along some photographs. The photograph must be printed a similar size to the embroidery size otherwise it is very difficult to work. It is essential to work from a crisp, clear, well-focused photograph where you can see the individual colours and changes from dark to light. Illustrations can sometimes be harder to follow, and you should be wary of images from the Internet, which are often poor quality and may not print sufficiently well. However there are many places online from which you can purchase high quality images. The tutor will be able to make suggestions and help you bring your ideas together.

  • Ann's Orchard Needlework
    Ann’s Orchard Needlework Tea Towel to Embroidered Cushion! with Bobble Edging TaDah! A little surface embroidery,! fold in half and stitch cushion! then crochet a bobble edging Shortly before Christmas I came across this fabulous tea towel designed by Holly Fream for Anthropologie ! and decided it was far too good for drying dishes and would make a lovely pug themed cushion for my ! daughter. So, if a similar tea towel catches your eye and you fancy transforming it read on…….. 1. Pop your tea towel in an embroidery hoop! Choose an area of the printed design you would like to embroider – you can do as much or as little as you ! like – and fit an embroidery hoop over the area to keep the fabric taut, helping to keep your stitches even. 2. Embroider the design! Use stranded embroidery cotton and a variety of stitches to add texture and shading to the printed image. For the collie and cat I simply used satin stitches and beads to enhance the eyes. For the pug I use seed ! stitches to give texture to the fur, chain stitch and French knots on the ears, satin stitch and jet black beads ! for the eyes and a row of French stitches around the outline. Threads: Pug – Charcoal Anchor 236, Grey Anchor 398, Pink DMC 3778 Cat – Lime Green Anchor 734 3. Stitch the cushion! Remove the outer stitching of the tea towel and open out the edge seams. Fold the tea towel in half with! right sides together. Stitch a seam approximately 1cm from the edge around the entire cushion leaving ! an opening of approximately 10cm on one side.
