Hand embroidery tips: how to use variegated thread
Normally – practically always, as a matter of fact – the embroidery projects I work on are mounted on an embroidery frame or in an embroidery hoop. For some types of embroidery, it’s essential to use a hoop or frame. Goldwork and silk embroidery (like the Medallion project, this goldwork pomegranate project, this goldwork and ...
In the April and July 2006 issues of the CQ Magazine, I had photos of my Four Seasons Wallhanging. Since then, it's been packed away in the UFO drawer with little hope of being finished. I took it out this year and have started working on it again...hopefully I can show it to you finished. This wisteria was one of the first embroideries I did on it in 2006 and I hope that you can make use of the design. Chain stitch, lazy daisy, and French knots with some beads added, are the only embroidery stitches you'll need.

At the last meeting of the Embroiderers' Guild, I was given a little project to take home. It was several candlewicking pieces that required only Colonial Knots. I had never heard of that before, so I learned it and now I'll show you! : ) So welcome back to another edition of 'Saturday Stitches' where you watch me teach myself to embroider! you can see all posts by clicking on 'Tutorials' at the very top of my blog A Colonial Knot is a little different that a French Knot. It doesn't make that little doughnut. It makes a good tied knot but wrapping the needle in a figure eight. Check it out... bring the needle up, and then lie the tip over and under the thread like that... Take the working thread and put it across the tip of the needle and then tuck it under again. put the needle back into the cloth, close to where you first came up Pull to tighten the knot a bit and then take the needle right through to the bottom. And there you have it! It's pretty easy. They sure look lumpy and knotty compared the the French Knot. They would work great as pebbles in a small landscape I bet. hmm.... Have a great weekend!
