    Blackwork Embroidery Pattern Generation Using a Parametric Shape Grammar April Grow, Michael Mateas, and Noah Wardrip-Fruin Computational Media Department University of California Santa Cruz Santa Cruz, CA 95060 USA agrow@soe.ucsc.edu, michaelm@soe.ucsc.edu, nwf@ucsc.edu Abstract Design tools with computational algorithms have been aiding artists for many years in 2D and 3D, from of- fering a digital drafting table or canvas to applying im- age filters or other mathematical transformations. How- ever, there are many more non-digital creative tasks that can benefit from computer-aided design. This paper presents an interactive parametric shape grammar for blackwork embroidery pattern generation, whose pat- terns are then implemented (sewn) using an unmodified home embroidery machine. A design tool executes the grammar-guided user input, enumerates expanded pat- tern possibilities, and compiles patterns into an imme- Figure 1: Generated samples by our parametric shape gram- diately sewable file format.

Related Work Introduction ”Embroidery” is a broad term that roughly encompasses any embellishment by thread, or materials held or strung via thread, on nearly any material, most commonly on textiles. In the multi-millennial lifespan of embroidery, while many fundamental stitches remain the same, dozens of styles and approaches have been classified (Leslie 2007). This paper chooses to focus on non-freeform blackwork embroidery, one of the most restrained styles, as a first approach to em- broidery pattern generation.

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.

    3 seful hours: needlework and Painted textiles from south - ern California ColleCtions Uexplores the development of the needle arts in the United States in the late 18th and early 19th centuries through a selection of more than 25 samplers, coats of arms, family trees, mourning pictures, pocketbooks, and narrative painted textiles made be tween 1763 and 1844. Most of these richly engaging com - positions were stitched by girls between the ages of 8 and 19 as part of their preparation for marriage and later life. Such samplers were handsomely framed for display in the “best parlor” of the young needleworker’s home, where they could be admired by visitors and family alike. ey served as symbols of the family’s wealth and social standing as well as of the maker’s refinement and eligibility for marriage. Today, these works are highly prized by collectors of American folk art for their fresh beauty and for the remarkable technical accomplishment of their creators. Because they represent rare examples of work designed and made by women, samplers are also valued today for the extraordinary insight they offer into the early training, daily lives, and social and cultural values of American women in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. e exhibition is drawn in large part from the collection of Thomas H. Oxford and Victor Gail. The Gail-Oxford Collec tion, comprising more than 500 objects, from American furniture and painting, to ceramics, metals, and needlework, is a promised gift to e Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens. e Gail-Oxford material is supple - mented by loans from other public and private collections in Southern California.

  • Nest Danica Maier 2014 Wall Drawing, Jacobean Crewel Embroidered Bedspread Lcnug: 1927/30, & Blue Tit Pencil Drawing on Seritrace Courtesy the Artist
    Nest Danica Maier 2014 wall drawing, jacobean crewel embroidered bedspread lcnug: 1927/30, & blue tit pencil drawing on seritrace courtesy the artist This installation focuses on the 17th Century bedspread that was the starting point for the Stitch & Peacock exhibition. Maier’s wall drawing, similar to wallpaper, and an almost hidden small drawing purposely put her own laborious work to the background therefore hosting the historical object. The highly patterned historical bedspread is created using a repeat pattern, however while the outline of the imagery is repeated the details within are each different and unique. Looking from left to right you can see similar birds and leaves but the decorative detail of each is different. The idea of disrupting or working with the singular, within a repeat pattern, is something the artist is very interested in and can be seen in different elements of the exhibition. In this large installation Maier creates what appears as a line of stitch, yet on closer inspection you will see that this repetition is created from 17th century slang terms for female genitalia. As we consider this work the social and political environment that surrounds the historic work and its production comes into focus. Bringing up questions about the link between the three works making up the installation and how the artist allows us to approach a historical item anew. Many of the designs are similar to those found in crewel embroidery from collections such as the V&A and are thought to come from Richard Shorleyker’s pattern book of 1624, A ‘schole-house, for the needle’.

  • A Remedy for Rents Darning Samplers and Other Needlework from the Whitelands College Collection
    A Remedy for Rents Darning Samplers and Other Needlework from the Whitelands College Collection Constance Howard Gallery Goldsmiths, University of London January 19 – March 10 2016 Supported by the WhitelandsAnnual College Collection Fund1 A Remedy for Rents Darning Samplers and Other Needlework from the Whitelands College Collection It was but yesterday my own womankind were … in the practice of some new device of remedy for Rents … whereby it might be daintily effaced, and with a newness which would never make it worse. The process began – beautiful even to my uninformed eyes – in the likeness of herring-bone masonry, crimson on white, but it seemed to me marvellous that anything should yet be discoverable in needle process, and that of so utilitarian character.1 John Ruskin, 1884 The revelatory ‘remedy for Rents’ at which John Ruskin marvelled was the mending of clothes, the ‘herring-bone masonry’ a stitch, ‘chiefly used to secure the raw edges of flannel’ (Figure 1).2 That a practical solution to damaged textiles could, as Ruskin noted, be beautiful as well as useful, is abundantly evident in the darning and plain needlework samplers produced, between 1877 and 1902, by student teachers at Whitelands College, Chelsea. The Head Governess at this time 1. Herringbone stitch (detail of E.
