OR
NUE DRAGONFLY
The Or
Nue Dragonfly design is to be embroidered in Gold, Silver and
Copper. There is a choice of two dragonfly designs in each kit,
either the dragonfly on a diagonal or up right and the embroidery can
also be framed in two different methods, please see the pictures opposite.
Working the embroidery:
The center of the design is worked in Or Nue.
Or
Nue is the couching down of passing thread using a similar colour
or/and a contrasting colour to create a design on the passing thread.
The dragonfly pattern is created by couching down the passing thread
using a green silk thread and Metallic threads (the colours used on
the gold design do not show up well in the picture).
Rococco
is used to border the Or Nue design. Smooth Purl No. 7 and Bright
Check No. 7 are used for the triangle shapes. The diamond shapes are
worked in Or Nue and the swirls are worked in No. 1 Pearl Purl.
The
Gold Or Nue Dragonfly kit comes with a choice of off white or black
silk noil background fabric, you can also purchase the supplies only
if you would like to work the Or Nue Dragonfly in gold, silver and
copper and do not require the instruction booklet again.
