  • The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams
    The Velveteen Rabbit By Margery Williams The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams There was once a velveteen rabbit, and in the beginning he was really splendid. He was fat and bunchy, as a rabbit should be; his coat was spotted brown and white, he had real thread whiskers, and his ears were lined with pink sateen. On Christmas morning, when he sat wedged in the top of the Boy's stocking, with a sprig of holly between his paws, the effect was charming. There were other things in the stocking, nuts and oranges and a toy engine, and chocolate almonds and a clockwork mouse, but the Rabbit was quite the best of all. For at least two hours the Boy loved him, and then Aunts and Uncles came to dinner, and there was a great rustling of tissue paper and unwrapping of parcels, and in the excitement of looking at all the new presents the Velveteen Rabbit was forgotten. For a long time he lived in the toy cupboard or on the nursery floor, and no one thought very much about him. He was naturally shy, and being only made of velveteen, some of the more expensive toys quite snubbed him. The mechanical toys were very superior, and looked down upon every one else; they were full of modern ideas, and pretended they were real. The model boat, who had lived through two seasons and lost most of his paint, caught the tone from them and never missed an opportunity of referring to his rigging in technical terms. The Rabbit could not claim to be a model of anything, for he didn't know that real rabbits existed; he thought they were all stuffed with sawdust like himself, and he understood that sawdust was quite out-of-date and should never be mentioned in modern circles.

Velveteen is made from cotton or a cotton-blend fabric that has a short dense pile. It is woven in a single layer with an extra set of filling yarns that are cut to form the short, closely set pile. Velveteen is available in solid colors and printed with plaid, floral or paisley designs. As a medium weight fabric, it is used whenever a velvet look is desired. It is easier to sew and more durable than velvet. Patterns This fabric is used for dresses, jumpers, vests, children's clothes, jackets, coats, skirts and slacks. Simple styles with few seams are good choices. Preshrink All cotton velveteen will shrink. For finished garments that will be laundered, stitch ends of fabric closed, then wash and tumble dry on delicate cycle.

For centuries, these fabrics have added elegance, femininity and versatility to wardrobes as beautiful dresses, gowns or separates.

Velvet, the oldest of the pile fabrics (since 2000 B.C.), may be woven or knitted. In woven velvet the pile is formed by the lengthwise warp yams; in velve­ teen the crosswise filling yarns form the pile. In woven velvet, two layers offabric are woven simulta­ neously forming a sandwich with the vertical warp yams as the filling. Layers are then separated with a knife to form the pile.

  • Velvets & Velveteen
    Velvets & Velveteen Traditionally, the grand or house drapes are made of velvet with a generous fullness. Velvet is a beautiful and luxurious fabric, but you must provide extra attention to the care and maintenance of this fabric. Note that Velvet Velour should not be confused with velveteen. Velour is a cotton fabric that has a deeper pile than velveteen, is heavier in weight and is commonly used in draperies. PRG offers a range of velvet, velour and velveteen options.

  • 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.
