TASTER: Whitework Eyelet Embroidery Technique with Kate Barlow

FREE Tasters (Embroidery) • Educational, G, 02-Jul-2021

Kate has worked this element of whitework on 32count linen, using cotton a broder or perle threads. Kate creates the hole using a stylo, this means that no threads are cut, thus keeping your work really strong.

These eyelet designs were often used on garments where both sides of the work would be seen. Also, Kate shares with you a great way to start and stop without leaving any knots or unsightly threads on view.

We have a lovely kit from Kate to tie in with this workshop.

    TASTER: Fly Stitch Embroidery Worksho...

    Niamh believes the fly stitch is a close cousin to the lazy daisy embroidery stitch. This is because it is created with a V stitch rather than a loop.

    She has used it in the centre of leaves, to create pine branches and flowers.

    You also get to see how to sort out a really knotty problem wi...
