Thread of the Month: Stef Francis 12 Ply Silk 4. Stitch of the Month: Little Wavy 5. Notes on Needlepoint Our First Two Big-Time Classes Why do I say, "Our first two big-time classes?" Well, because this is the first time in the nearly ten years that we have been open that we will be bringing in professional teachers to our store to teach. And boy are we excited! First up is "78 Stitches, 78 Threads" with Ruth Dilts. This wonderful class is a crash-course in all things Rainbow Gallery. You know Rainbow Gallery threads. You've been using them forever. They are those threads that come on cards https://us2.campaign-archive.com/?e=[UNIQID]&u=9b9b7549e5c8f818070e0508c&id=d352853db8[6/26/2018 4:17:38 PM] and are on the ubiquitous spin racks found pretty much wherever needlepoint supplies are sold. True confession here -- I've been in the business for a while now and even I have trouble keeping all the names of their products straight in my mind so I can only imagine what a jumble it must be for people who don't handle them every day. Well, now is your chance to start untangling that confusing web. And best of all with this class you will end up with a permanent reference volume to take home with you so that in the future you need never be confused by the plethora of Rainbow Gallery options ever again.

  • Basic Needlepoint
    VISIT OUR OTHER NEEDLEARTS BASIC NEEDLEPOINT TUTORIALS AT www.beadseast.com WHAT YOU’LL NEED: Needlepoint canvas, 3” larger than your desired finished size; fiber appropriate to the gauge of the needlepoint canvas (in our tutorial we’ll assume you’re using 14-to-the-inch interlock canvas and a full strand of embroidery floss or tapestry wool); #10 embroidery needle or size 24 tapestry needle; masking tape; scissors 15 19 23 17 21 18 16 24 20 Before beginning, tape the edge of your canvas with masking tape and22 round the edges (photo, above) to minimize tangling or catching. Secure threads by holding one inch on the back of the canvas and catching the thread end in the first few stitches; end a thread by running it under stitches on the back of the canvas, one or more times until secure. When deciding where to start, allow a margin of about 1.5” all around, which will allow enough margin for blocking should it be necessary. There are three basic stitches used in traditional needlepoint: Continental stitch, half-cross stitch, and basketweave stitch. You’ll probably use all three within each project. 22 20 8 6 2 2 4 6 8 10 12 21 19 7 5 1 1 3 5 7 9 11 24 18 10 4 13 15 19 23 17 21 9 18 16 24 23 20 14 22 17 3 26 16 12 25 15 11 28 14 27 13 HALF-CROSS STITCH is also worked in 2 4 6 8 10 12 30 back and forth rows with a rotation of the1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 19 23 17 canvas at the end of the row.

Johnstone’s Needlepoint Tapestries of Bethlehem Steel: A Less Travelled Road By Ruta T. Saliklis Fig. 1. Mildred T. Johnstone. Alice in a Wonderland of Steel, 1949, Collection of the Allentown Art Museum. The steel mills in Bethlehem are quiet now, but Mildred T. Johnstone’s boldly colored needlepoint tapestries vividly remind us of their awesome power in the 1940s and 1950s. Far from being realistic, literal renderings, these abstract and highly textural interpretations use steel making as a metaphor for modern life. The machinery is larger than life, crackling and spewing out the molten steel used to construct oilrigs and skyscrapers. The people in the mill are very small—the anonymous steelworkers in masks, the artist as a bewildered Alice in a Wonderland of Steel.

  • Tips for Starting and Ending a Needlepoint Thread
    Tips For Starting and Ending A Needlepoint Thread The most common and most secure way to secure a thread is to bury it under stitches. So if you have stitches nearby on your canvas and they provide good canvas coverage e.g. tent stitches, then start by sliding your needle under half a dozen of these stitches and come up where you want to start your first stitch. No stitches nearby? Start with an away knot or a waste knot . This is where a knot is placed on the top (right side) of the canvas at least an inch from where you will place your first stitch. The tail eventually gets covered with stitches and the knot is snipped off after the tail is buried. The only difference between an away knot and a waste knot is where the knot is placed. An away knot is placed in the direction you will not be stitching toward. A waste knot is placed in the direction that you will be stitching toward and so the thread tail is immediately stitched over. You might use an away knot if the stitch you are using does not have good canvas coverage and so the tail is likely to show through – therefore you place the knot AWAY in an area that you will ultimately cover with a tent or well-covering stitch. This is an Away Knot , used because there were no tent stitches under which to bury the thread and the stitches being used are long stitches - these are not secure enough to bury a thread under.
