EB's Blog…I'm in Stitches! My embroidery and creative stitching experiences. DS2, Ch. 8. Not What it Seams! June 3, 2015. Not what it seams? Not seams, trims! I started this chapter by skipping the seams part as I felt really lacking in inspiration or imagination. However working through the trimmings etc helped me over this hump and it seems I can seam seams after all! A bit like shoes, I am always on the look out for the perfect fit! Lot no. 1 – 5. 3 Similar to 2., except the bobbin thread is on th...

EB's Blog…I'm in Stitches! My embroidery and creative stitching experiences. DS 2 Ch 6 Continued. April 26, 2015. The cat’s face says it all, I am so busy with shibori I have no time for him! After completing the stitching, winding and tying I moved everything out to the summer house, where the dying was taking place. List ing, and process)but I missed out the urea. Further reading on the use of this would suggest for my purposes it was not really necessary. I took samples out in batches as this was easi...

EB's Blog…I'm in Stitches! My embroidery and creative stitching experiences. DS3, Mod. 2, Chapter 7. Piecing Methods. April 26, 2015. The first method used in this chapter is the ‘Log Cabin ‘ method. Traditionally cloth was sewn around a square, usually but not always, in the centre. Eventually I came up with something. It is one of those things I can do without thinking about it but when I had to do it logically I couldn’t. DS3 Mod.2. Chapter 6 continued (again! May 13, 2015 at 8:52 am. I love the sense...

EB's Blog…I'm in Stitches! My embroidery and creative stitching experiences. April 26, 2015. The second type of sample worked on in this chapter uses the Seminole method. Seminole Indians used strips of cloth to embellish and mend their clothes. They started off with a simple strip of cloth joined to other strips of cloth. It was then cup up into smaller pieces and sewn together to create simple or complicated geometric patterns. This made their garments really colourful. This sheet shows samples 8 to 14...

EB's Blog…I'm in Stitches! My embroidery and creative stitching experiences. DS3 Mod.2. Chapter 6 continued (again! April 26, 2015. The dying process was quite long compared to the process of using acrylic paints however I think I prefer the marks made by dying. There is still merit in using acrylics though. I am a fan of mono-printing and this is what I used most of the time on these samples. I took some painting and printing tools out to my shed so that I could work without worrying about any mess.

EB's Blog…I'm in Stitches! My embroidery and creative stitching experiences. DS 3 Mod 2. Ch. 6. Dye and paint fabrics. April 26, 2015. I am using Procion MX Dye (150 Jet Black) and mixing my own fixative using soda crystals and salt solution. When I am mixing the solutions I will be wearing rubber gloves, and an apron. I thought about a face mask but the quantities are so small I don’t think this should be an issue. I will also be preparing these solutions in a well ventilated area. Manipulating fabric i...

EB's Blog…I'm in Stitches! My embroidery and creative stitching experiences. Ds 3 Mod. 2. Ch 9 Fibonnacci sequence and Golden Section. July 18, 2015. These are my tonal columns using 4 different papers. I have occasionally shown the same image vertically and horizontally (marked as a, and b.), because I am fascinated by the difference to the eye and imagination this makes. Also some designs naturally lend themselves better to one format or the other and others conform well to both. 8230;and made this.
