Modern Embroidery: A New Look at Traditional Skills
Today's popular embroidery is significantly different from the traditional embroidery on the clothes of nobles in the 18th and 19th centuries. Nowadays, a wide range of materials specifically designed for embroidery are available on the market, in different materials and widths, giving this craft a whole new look. By choosing the right stitching method and material, the expression of embroidery becomes more diverse. For the same stitching method, due to different material properties, the length and tightness of each stitch will affect the final effect.
During the embroidery process, the relationship between needle and material is like a seamless partner. Through their cooperation, the following five main changes can be created:
Flat embroidery: This is the most basic embroidery method. Whether it's lengthwise, crosswise or diagonally, it's all based on the next stitch and then the next stitch. For example, three flower patterns, heart patterns, circles, miscanthus patterns, herring patterns and square interlaced patterns are all basic styles of flat embroidery.
Combination of loops and chains: This is based on flat embroidery. Press the original material and pass the second needle through it to form various arc shapes. Y-shaped, V-shaped, pinecone-shaped, coral-shaped and seaweed-shaped are all typical representatives of this technique.
Knotted pattern combination: This technique combines flat and symmetrical weaving, leaving a little space, and using multiple knots to create a sense of space on the cloth. Common techniques include single knots, double knots, rose petals, and V-shaped knots.
Three-dimensional effect: After mastering the above techniques, you can try to use twisting or multiple knots to create a three-dimensional effect, which is very suitable for decorating the room and adding interest to life. Techniques such as multi-petal roses, staggered extensions and inward or outward twists can all produce a strong three-dimensional effect.
Color changes: Embroidery becomes more lifelike by adding materials of different colors. Traces of embroidery thread are rarely seen in this technique. Usually the embroidery thread appears only on the branches, and the rest is hidden by the turning or covering of the material. A bouquet of twigs, a wreath made of circles, hydrangeas and peonies are all classic patterns that challenge expert embroidery.
Material preparation and basic steps
You need to prepare the following materials for embroidery:
Materials for embroidery: Choose materials of different materials and widths according to your needs.
Embroidery thread: used for fixing and decoration.
Fabric: It is recommended to use solid color fabric to highlight the embroidery pattern.
Embroidery needles and two-hole needles: used to pierce and secure materials.
Copy paper: used to transfer patterns onto cloth.
Hard core pens and correction pens: used to trace and correct patterns.
Scissors: used for cutting materials and embroidery thread.
The next step is to use carbon paper to draw the pattern on the canvas, then pass the material through the embroidery needle, tie a small knot, and start practicing the stitching movement from outside to inside or from inside to outside.
Suitable for factory purchasing and traders applications
It is crucial for factory buyers and traders to understand these embroidery techniques and material properties. Choosing the right materials and tools can not only improve the quality and competitiveness of your products, but also meet the market's demand for diverse and high-quality embroidery products. With the continuous development of technology and craftsmanship, embroidery has unlimited application potential in the modern market and is worthy of investment and promotion.
In short, modern embroidery not only retains the essence of traditional craftsmanship, but also shows new artistic charm through innovative technology and design, which has important reference value for the development of related industries.
