BLACKWORK
HORSE 1 MANGALARGA
The blackwork
horse is a beginners blackwork kit.
The blackwork
horse is worked in blackwork patterns on 16 count or 32 count fabric
using embroidery floss.
Working the embroidery: The blackwork
embroidery is worked within a tacked outline of the
design with a variety of different blackwork stitches.
A three dimensional picture is created by
reducing the stitches in the pattern. A large chart
is included with the instruction booklet as a reference tool but the
embroidery is worked in the Tissue
Paper Transfer Method.
The patterns are stitched from step-by-step individual diagrams and
there are detailed instructions on how to work the embroidery.
I
am offering free correspondence and free on going critique for this
kit, for more details go to - Free
on going critique.
There
is a choice of three fabrics to work the blackwork design:
-
The
original embroidery is worked on 16 count heatherfield fabric which
is 100% poly acrylic fabric, it is mottled grey with darker grey and
gold flecks. It is a lovely natural looking fabric that compliments
the variegated embroidery floss that is used to work the blackwork
embroidery and is easy to count.
-
The
embroidery can also be worked on 32 count Belfast 100% Linen fabric
which is a off-white colour fabric with uneven weave threads
(different thicknesses) giving a natural look.
-
Or
32 count Etamin 100% cotton fabric which is a off-white colour
fabric with even weave threads (all threads are the same thickness)
which is a nice soft fabric and is easier to see and count compared
to the Belfast linen.
