1. Introduction: Hi guys, Welcome to this class. My name is I'm an embroidery
artist living in India. This class is for all levels. You don't need any
prior knowledge of embroidery to join it. In this class, I'll be
teaching how to decorate etchings of a fabric with
hand embroidery stitches. I'll be covering seven
embroidery stitches and guide you step-by-step on how to decorate agents
of a handkerchief. In the same way you can apply these stitches on the edges
of dining table, napkins, handle, blanket, see
software, dress, finished piece of embroidery or anything that
you can imagine. These are very easy stitches. This is our last. I have been embroidering
since childhood. It fascinates me six then, when my grandmother was
embroidering bedsheets, she taught me this skill and on hair to share the
same with you all. Enjoy the process of embroidery. And if you have any questions, please put your question
in the discussion tab. Let's begin.
2. Class Project: Your project is to
decorate the ages of three handkerchiefs or
three dining table napkins. For the completion
of the project, you can choose any
three stitches from the seven stitches
use in this class. You can choose the
colors of your choice. I would love to see your
work in the project section. Please share your project and other projects and
resources tab. If you want to share, please share your progress
pixels by filling the project eight pigs at the different stages
and share all of them.
3. Tools & Materials: Materials required
for this class are a hang budgets or
a dining table napkin. You can choose accord and handkerchief for
dining table napkin. For this class, I use a
pure cotton handkerchief after wash if we choose to
embroider any cotton fabric. So I would suggest washing it
before you start because in cotton fabrics there is
some shrinkage and if you will wash it only after
embroidery is done, then your stitches will destroy one extra fabric for the base. We need this fabric Too late under the handkerchief
we are decorating. You can use any bed sheet also, but prefer to use a cotton one. I'm going to use this cotton do but they need some
ball head pins. For erasable fabric pen. It is useful when we need
to make markings on fabric. And when we're done, these markings can be removed
by spraying water on them. Scale, we need a
transparent scale. Stranded cotton
embroidery thread. It is the most commonly
used embroidery thread. And Thompson, six strands. These are six trends. You can find these threads
of multiple brands, like I'm using, threads
of anchor brand. Strengths can be separated
and we can choose to use less than six also suggest we can use three strands,
two strands, etc. I needed for embroidery, we need a needle with sharp enlarge AI to
put the thread easily. I'm using a needle. Cruel size number seven for up to three
strands of thread. And another Gardner size number six for up to six
strands of thread. If you're using any
other embroidery needle who are comfortable with. So keep using it. On needle thread.
This is optional. The last thing is a scissor
or a thread cutter. To cut threads. You will get all these items on Amazon or at any craft
store in your local market.
4. Preparing to Stitch: There are three
ways in which you can apply these edging stages. The first one is
if you are taking a piece where the edges are already finished and there is a strong base, carry
the embroidery. Then you can start as it is. This is a dining table napkin. The second one is if
you're taking a piece where the edges are
already finished, but there is no strong base
to carry the embroidery. Then first you need to create that base by folding the edges. And I've named them. This way. I have
iron all the edges. You can start embroidery
on the edges. It is a, B all gotten handkerchief that I'm
going to embroider. The third one is
if you are taking a piece where the edges
are not finished, then first you need
to finish the edges by folding it twice
and running them. So I have foiled it once. Then I run it, then make another four. And I didn't it. This way. We have finished it. And along with this, we have created a base
for our embroidery. You can start embroidery
on the edges. Before I start, I always
prefer to iron the fabric. But if obese is big enough, then you can start after
adding the edges only. It is a be all
caught and handled. So I have watched
it and I read it. As I told you that we need
extra fabric for the base for this fabric or bad **** into four fourths and lay it on a
table or on a flat surface. Remove all the wrinkles. Then lay your handkerchiefs over it and use some poll head
pins. Who attach it. So the handkerchief does not
move while you embroider it. Now it is not moving. We need to attach it
from one side only because at a time we will
embroider one edge only. For stitching. We need to cut the thread and
thread the needle, the lens should be measured by taking it up to your shoulder. Then guard that right. I'm gonna use cruel
needle size numbers. Seven for up to three strands. And Lidl size number six for more than
three strands and up to six strands.
Throughout the course. You can use a needle
you are comfortable, but I have used different strands of thread
for different stitches. If you want a boulder
loop in your stitches, then you may use more strands. If you want a detailed
look in your embroidery, then use lesser strength
than I have used. I show you how to separate
strands of embroidery thread. After putting the thread
up at the top of threads. Ben, separate required
number of threads. Like I need three strands. I have separated. Then slide your
finger downwards. Along with holding the thread. This where we have
separated the strands. Now we can use these
trends for embroidery. There are many ways
to try to needle. First thing we need to do is start the
edge of the thread. Thread the needle easily. The thing I do is leaked
the edge off the thread and put it in the whole of
the needle. This is done. This is the easiest
and fastest way. In fact, I'm using this method. I know that alternative is dark. We can actually apply
something on this edge. You can take any moisturizing
cream for this purpose, a little bit of green and just apply the edge
off the thread. Now we can easily put it in
there. Oh love the leader. I want to share one more
way to thread a needle. This time I'm using
a needle trader. If you're facing difficulty in threading a needle with
above two methods. Needle trader. We need to push the string
of needle trader, the whole of the needle. This way. Now hold your
thread in the string. Now take it back. And it's done. At one edge. We need to tie a knot it
one edge in this way. One round and roll
it with your thumb. Then you need to
pull it downward. And it will catch or not. I'll show you once again. 81 round. You need to
roll it with your thumb. Then you need to pull it downwards and it
will catch a naught. Then the tail. All the preparations
have been done to start this
project. Let's begin.
5. Blanket Stitch: In this tutorial, I'm going
to teach you blankets. This is the basic edging stitch and the base for
many other stitches. First, draw a line with
water erasable fabric, then the length of all the
stitches remains the same way. You need to draw a line. This is the lower x and
this is the upper end. Use three strands off track. Oh, no worries. In this way. And down it up an inch. I didn't get a bit lower edge
over the working thread. Again, take new data down, bring it up and lower it. Or were the walking
wounded stitches really tightly ends up in the middle of the edge or not. In this fake. Bring the fresh tread all the lower edge. Inside the loop of
the previous steps. Feed me die down. I talk about it over the world. Now think all the stitches
in this same vein. Then Riga reach to garner been needle down just next to the stitch
at the lower edge. Then bring up the
lower edge open next. Good evening, go down and bring it up
into the working. This way we have completed
the edges of a hand culture. After completion, we need
to remove the mark lights, spray bottle containing water, and spray water on
all the lights. Let it dry. You can
see after getting dry, all the lines are wiped out. You can wash your piece, just dip it in water for five
minutes and keep it dry. Let's move on to the next stage.
6. Crossed Sloping Blanket Stitch: I'm going to teach you
frost sloping gland as I have done all the markings, I'm using three strands. Start this stitch, bring needle, the needle down it up. Bring it up at lower edge
over the working thread. Big neutered down. Bring it up and lower
edge over the walking. This way. We have been one
stitch, second stitch, down it up, bring it up and lower edge
over the working thread. Needle down and bring it up and lower it over
the walking track. In this stitch, we are taking all the stitches diagonally. The same way I'm taking
food trays to choose more. Do not pull this to
just very tightly. Menu frayed, ends up in
the middle of the edge. Then I R naught at the backside. And then bring the
fresh trade-off at the lower edge inside the
loop of the previous stitch. And start taking stitches
in the same way. When we have reached the corner. Then if needle down at the
lower edge next to the stitch. And then bring middle of the next embroider
the next edge. On dawning behind Goodreads. Then start taking
stitches in the same way. Started on doing the same in the end. This where we have completed all the edges of a handkerchief. After completion,
we need to remove mouth lines in the
same way as before. It goes. Spray water
containing water and spray water on all the lines. Then let it dry. That's all. Let's move
on to the next stitch.
7. Partial Pinwheel Blanket Stitch: I'm gonna teach you partial
pinwheel blanket stitch. I used three strands of thread. I've done all the markings with water erasable fabric pen, needle up at eight newtons down it up. Bring it up but
lower edge or where the working press down. Bring it up at lower
edge over the world. This way we have
done one stitch, the second stitch, eighth, neater down into body. Bring it up and lower it over the walking down. Bring it up at lower edge. Then to take the chord stitch. If needle down it up, bring it. Working. In this way. We have done three partial
pin when blanket stitch on, doing the same till the end. When your thread ends up
in the middle of the edge. Then psi naught and the bedside. And then bring the
face trade-off. Know what edge inside the
loop of the previous stitch. Then another stitch. Same way. You will not want us to
choose very tightly. We have reached the corner
the evening or down. Just next to this embroider, the next edge we have. So under hand Goodreads. Then start aching stages
in the same room. Doing the same til the end. This way we have completed all the edges of
this Hong budgets. After completion,

strands of thread. I have done all the markings with water erasable fabric pen. As the name suggests, we need to make double-blind. First, we need to
make a rough plan. It stitches in the same
way as we learned before. I'm taking two or
three stitches. We need to take needle down. Bring it up at low
wattage over the Fontan. You're doing this
same til the end. After completing all the
edges with blankets stitch, we need to do blanket
stitch once again, butt to the inner side. For this, we need to
make markings again. In this way. Mark line on all the edges. Bring needle on this
line down at this point. And bring it up again on
this line over the working. Again, they've needle
down. This point. Putting Nutella on the line
or the working thread. I'm taking a few more stages. Do not pull the
stitches very tightly. Bonding are doing the
same bill, the end, maybe aren't thread and
soak in the middle of a big needle down just next
to the final mach nine. Die or not. The back side. For this also, I'm using three strengths and then
bring the face trade-off, the Mach line inside the
loop of the previous stitch. Then start taking stitches in the same way you
doing this builder. And then we have
reached the corner, then start taking
stitches on the next day. If you're buying fakes to
comfortably in this way. So continue doing the same. But I wouldn't recommend. After digging one
or two stitches. On your hand, Goodreads. Then completed. This way we have completed all the edges

lower edge is changing. I'm taking a few more stages. Do not pull this to
just very tightly. When we have reached the corner. Been paid needle down
at the lower edge, just next to the last node and start taking
stitches on them. Men stock taking stitches
in the same vein. Then your thread ends
up going off the edge. Then eat me died down. Lower it just next
to the last node. And tie a knot at the back side. And then bring the
face trade-off. Inside the loop of
previous stitch. We'll take all the
