It has been so unseasonably warm in Baltimore that it hardly seems like fall. I think that’s why I’ve been gravitating so much to Halloween-related illustrations (as evidenced on my Instagram), becaus

I am having too much fun! Seriously. I love denim. And I have always been a mender of jeans. Lots of jeans. Living with five kids and working on a ranch along with a husband who works hard, jeans ripped and tore and wore out. I have mended innumerable jeans (meaning I have never numbered them and wish I had). When I was in seventh grade, I started embroidering... on my jeans. I drew on my jeans with a ballpoint pen during class and went home and embroidered them at night. I wish I still had those jeans. Now I feel like I'm re-living seventh grade. OnlyDaughter brought me four pair of li'l girl jeans to mend. And this is what I have been doing in my spare time. Love it! Soon I will go next door and grab the other little jeans that belong to more of my little people and stitch on them too. Won't that be fun? Yes, it will!

Have you been practicing your bullion stitch? I finished the embroidered overalls I was working on for little c and have the blackberry vine pattern and tutorial for you! If you're just joining us today, see last Monday's post here. Materials: *something to embroider - I'm using denim bib overalls *embroidery thread in green, purple, cream, and light yellow *embroidery needle - if you're embroidering on denim, use a heavier needle than what you're probably used to using *small pair of pliers if you're using denim - these are useful for pulling the needle through heavy seams, especially if you have achy fingers like me! Some hints on embroidering denim: Use shorter (about 12 to 14 inches) lengths of thread. After awhile of pulling the thread through the heavy denim it begins to wear and get a big fuzzy, making your stitches look off. I use a heavy needle and a small pair of pliers to stand up to the denim and its heavy seams. I embroidered these without tracing a pattern onto the overalls. I drew out the patterns I ended up with that you can download or view if you want, or just look at the tutorial and follow the sequence I used. If you want to see patterns, they are here. 1. Using six strands of green, embroider a wandering vine using a stem or outline stitch. 2. Next, add in the leaves using a lazy daisy stitch and six strands of green. Add in spirals and offshoots every so often. 3. Add the flowers, again using a lazy daisy stitch and three strands of cream. 4. Put three french knots in the center of each flower, using two strands of light yellow. 5. Make blackberries using a bullion stitch and 6 strands of purple. I wrapped the needle 4 times for some of the stitches and 3 times for others. 6. Here's the finished side seam: The finished side pocket: The front bib pocket: The back pocket: And the finished front: Happy Creating! Deborah

You might remember that, last autumn, I was fiddling around a bit with some fun needle woven fillings that can be used to add color, texture, and pattern to large areas of embroidery. Needle weaving is pretty much just weaving embroidery thread on the surface of fabric. In concept, it’s not too complicated. But the ...
