  • Project Description
    Project Description Candlewicking is a form of surface embroidery that traditionally uses an unbleached cotton thread on a piece of unbleached muslin. It gets Candlewicking its name from the nature of the thread, which very much resembles the wick used in a candle. Motifs are created using a variety of knots (Colonial) and satin stiches (backstitich). A warm covering made of two layers of cloth filled with a material with loft and tyed together. 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. By the end of the 18th century the U.S. quilt had distinctive features, such as coloured fabric sewn on the outer layers (appliqué) and stitching that echoed the appliqué pattern.

  • Scftpride Badge Cross Stitch Instructions
    #SCFTPride Badge Cross stitch instructions BEFORE YOU START This kit contains everything you need to complete your very own cross stitch #RainbowNHSBadge except for a needle and scissors. We recommend using needles with large eyes as you will be working with two strands of embroidery floss at a time, and small nail/embroidery scissors to help you cut the plastic canvas as neatly as possible. The main body of the badge is completed in cross stitch. If you’re a complete novice, YouTube has great video tutorials. Just search “cross stitch for beginners”. You have been given one metre of each colour of embroidery floss used in your chosen design. Each metre contains six strands, and you should use two of these strands at a time. SEW SEW SEW! Follow the correct chart below to complete the front of your chosen badge. We have the classic #NHSRainbowBadge, along with the #morecolourmorepride and #transpride variants. It’s easiest to start sewing near the top left of the plastic canvas (or top right if you’re left handed) and work your way down colour by colour. Don’t start sewing in the centre of the plastic, as you’ll need to cut it in half to make the back of the badge later! Once you have finished your badge front, cut around the edge of your work carefully using the nail/embroidery scissors. Cut a piece the same size from the remaining, unused plastic canvas. This blank piece will form the back of your badge. Use the extra strong white thread to sew the brooch pin on to the blank piece of plastic canvas.

Since the original was ruthlessly glued to the cardboard plate, we were not able to inspect the back side of the sampler. Therefore it was charted from the front side, reproducing the sampler in its present aged state. Some colors seem to be faded and altered over the years. Our guess is that the sampler used to be much brighter, with vivid greens and purples. I loved this sampler the moment I saw it! What’s there not to love? It has something for everyone: a beautiful floral border, Adam & Eve, Christ, a squirrel, a peacock, a butterfly, crowns, basket of flowers, etc. I love the fact that the ground fabric is barely visible. It’s a happy sampler, and it looks like Elise had great fun stitching it!

GATHERING For any of you in the area, Hannah’s piece is part of an SEE PAGE 4 exhibition, “Women Only: Folk Art by Female Hands,” now on view and extended through September 19, 2010 at the museum. Here’s what the museum says about this piece: “Hannah Carter's elegant lady in a pastoral setting belongs to pre-Revolutionary Boston's most famous group of needleworks known collectively as ‘fishing lady’ pictures. It features some of the classic motifs of seventeenth-century English needlework, such as birds, insects, berries, oversize flowers, and verdant hillocks, combined with figures based on English and French prints of the period. It is one of a group of related pastoral embroideries worked by young girls from some of the wealthiest colonial families while attending Boston boarding schools. Today, 17 within a group of 58 related pieces actually depict the fishing lady, but only six makers have been identified, and the schools they attended have defied discovery. The patterns, based on English prototypes, may have been drawn and distributed by a Boston schoolmistress such as Mrs.

  • Fiber Mesh Mash
    Copyright © 2017 Dick Blick Art Materials All rights reserved 800-447-8192 DickBlick.com Fiber Mesh Mash A staple for needle crafts, plastic mesh canvas becomes the base for a textural fiber and wire mash-up A product familiar to anyone with needle craft experience is plastic mesh canvas. Commonly used as a foundation for creating designs with yarn, its rigidity makes it suitable for a variety of shapes, both flat and dimensional. An unconventional way to use plastic mesh canvas is to consider it a base for textural and dimensional fiber art. Fiber craft is perhaps the oldest art form there is, and, for a great deal of history, it has been synonymous with women's work. The women's movement of the mid-20th century helped bring a revolution in fiber as artists such as Sheila Hicks, Lenore Tawney, and Magdalena Abakanowicz experimented with highly dimensional and large- scale forms, abstraction, environmental art, and figurative sculpture. “Fiber” is a blanket term for a large variety of natural and synthetic materials including cotton, wool, synthetic cords, twine, thread, raffia, silk, fur, wire, and, of course, yarn. Beyond weaving, fiber art is created through knotting, coiling, pleating, lacing, crocheting, braiding, felting, quilting, casting, and many other innovative Materials (required) techniques.

The Facebook discussion included several perspectives on what 10-year-old Margret Begbie was depicting with her beautifully executed needlework. A 10-year- old? Really? Such an accomplishment for such a tender age. On the following page is information included with the chart about this most interesting sampler. It’s such a compelling question, as to whether Margret was recording the ships landing in Australia or leaving the shores of Scotland bound for Botany Bay? After reading all that is written here about Margret’s sampler, what do you think? Another compelling question for me: Whose initials “PL” did Margret stitch beneath the beautiful crown? Sandra suggests that it is likely those of her teacher, Mrs. Lawder. * Botany Bay Sampler Chart $20, 286 x 323 I am grateful to Australian sampler devotee Sandra Moffitt, known to many * Charted for overdyed cottons (many on back order )~ so of us from her Hands Across the Sea, for her help with photos and facts.

  • Passing on Needlework Skills to Young People
    CT-MMB.700 PASSING ON NEEDLEWORK SKILLS TO YOUNG PEOPLE Why should we pass needlework skills on to young people? Don't they have enough to do with school, sports, music lessons, TV, and video games? And besides, it's so easy to buy needle crafted items at the store—the ones imported from overseas. Before you answer these questions, think about why you enjoy doing needlework yourself. We live in an age of technology and because of this, many parents have failed to see the importance of teaching handwork to their children. Family sociology has changed, families are spread out across the country, and the tradition of passing heritage skills from one generation to the next has almost been lost. Thankfully, the needle arts are experiencing a renewal, and many adults are learning the skills that were abandoned when they were growing up. Needlework includes knitting, crochet, quilting, embroidery, needlepoint, tatting/lacework, and rug making. Simply put, it is handwork that requires some sort of needle or tool and thread or yarn to create an item of decorative or practical use. The benefits of teaching young people needlework are numerous. Handwork develops focus and concentration. It encourages following a process in order to complete a project. It enhances critical thinking and math skills. It increases hand/eye coordination, small motor skills, and builds self-esteem. Moreover, it provides a means to promote healthy, interpersonal relationships between adults and children. Studies show that young people are less likely to engage in risky behaviors when they are bonded to trusted adults.1 Pointers for successfully working with young people Patience is the key when is comes to working with children.
