Monday, January 25, 2010. Patterns of the Orient. This is a glorious, though challenging, piece from Tony Minieri. It's a study in Chinese, Japanese and Korean textiles. Each area represents a different pattern used in contemporary and ancie. Nt fabrics. I think I'm enjoying it . some days it's way over my head. Posted by Nimble Thimble. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Monday, October 26, 2009. Ways to Improve Your Stitching. Here are a few simple suggestions for improving your stitching. More to come in the days ahead. Use a new needle. For each project. The plating on tapestry needles wears off amazingly fast. If the plating is gone, the needle may leave a black mark when you stitch. Metallics and other rough fibers can nick the needle eye. If this happens, it will rough up your threads and will contribute to pilling. Use the c orrect size needle. Try something new&#...

Friday, July 23, 2010. Everyone makes a mistake now and then, even the most experienced stitcher. That's when the "Frog Stitch" is invoked to "rip it, rip it.". The most important thing to keep in mind is to avoid cutting the canvas when you're ripping out a mistake. If you can't remove the mistake by "unstitching" with a needle in the reverse sequence they were stitched, you'll have to cut the stitches. In any case, relax, take your time, and look forward to getting it right the next time. Another area ...

Monday, April 12, 2010. Patterns of the Orient. This piece gets more and more beautiful with each completed area. I finished all but the goldwork touches on the upper lefthand border. It's a very pretty pattern based on a vase pattern used on Chinese sleeve bands. Now working on the lower righthand border, a pattern from a Korean blouse. I'm on step 10 of the 12 step process!
