  • Stitchery Fact Sheets Were Adapted from Creative Craft Techniques and Craft Fun: Unit B Handicraft Project with the Permission of Manitoba of Agriculture
    Stitchery The word "stitchery" is quite new but the techniques are centuries old. Stitchery includes all types of needle-and-yarn/thread fancy stitches done on a fabric background. Embroidery, crewel, teneriffe, Spanish black work, Swedish white work. Hardanger, drawn thread work, huck weaving, and cross stitch are but a few of the many types of stitchery. All types of stitchery make use of similar types of stitches but may be done with different kinds of threads or on different kinds of fabrics. Needlepoint, petitpoint, machinery embroidery, appliqué and smocking are also forms of stitchery but for the sake of clarity, are not included in this fact sheet. 1. Equipment and Materials a) Threads and Yarns Choose threads and yarns with textures which will emphasize the texture of the stitched design. For example, if stitching a daisy, you might consider choosing a smooth firmly twisted, maybe nylon shiny yarn for petal, a nubby yarn for the centre of the flower, and a very fuzzy loosely twisted yarn for stems and leaves. Contrasts in texture and yarn thicknesses are very important. Choose colors which will combine attractively with each other and with the background. Don’t overlook the possibility of using other ‘yarns’ like thread pulled out of burlap, baler twine, kitchen string, turkey cord, satin ribbon - j anything that conveys the message you are trying to put across with your stitchery. b) Needles For use with cotton embroidery thread, and thin yarn, embroidery and crewel needles - about size 6 are easiest to work with. When using wool or synthetic yarns, you’ll likely find a package of yarn needles most helpful.

PARKS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR #1: BAND NEEDLEWORK SAMPLER- Sarah RELPH, in her 10th year, [England, or possibly Rhode Island], October 30, 1745 Linen ground with silk thread Known as a band sampler, this was a primary learning tool for a young woman of the 17th through the 19th centuries. Through a basic marking sampler, the young lady would learn to sew and use darning stitches, necessary for her future roles as wife, mother, and housekeeper. As samplers continued to be made, religious verses and maxims were added to guide her toward a purposeful life. Decorative bands of geometrical motifs were copied across the width of the sampler and served as a reference when the young woman wished to embellish an article of clothing or household linen.

I used three sources for the paper, and was surprised to find out, unli ke most papers that I have done previously, they agreed exactly. EMBROIDERY AND CROCHET Paper for Honors Project Spring Semester , 1973 for Mrs . Thomas by Bennie Carol Burgess Embroidery is sometimes called needle-painting. The word embroide ry co~es from the An glo-Saxon word, meaning edge or border. There are many dif ferent kinds of s titches, some to outline a des ign, and others to fill in an entire area for a design. One of the advantages of embroidery is that it can be as simple or as com­ plica ted as you want .
