LEAF MOTIF
The Leaf
Motif is a beginner to advanced Modern Jacobean
technique. TThe kit comes with instructions for each stitch and
diagrams. The instructions are detailed and concise, written with the
beginner in mind and intended to guide embroiderers of any level
through the embroidery from beginning to end.
The
silk fabric comes with the design hand drawn on so there are no
worries about transferring the design and the threads come wrapped on
a long floss bobbin which are numbered for your convenience.
Working the embroidery:
Metallic leather pieces and organza
fabrics are applied to a silk background fabric.
A variety of different embroidery
stitches are worked on the design
using DMC floss and Kreinik Metallic #4 Braid, and
when combined with the needle lace leaves, gives this
traditional Jacobean design a modern touch.
You
choose to make this embroidery into a small vanity case in which you
can keep a pocket mirror (included in the kit), or make
the embroidery into a picture. Instructions are given with the
kit to make the vanity case (no machine work, all hand made). If you
prefer to make it into a picture the kit will come without the
materials and instructions for making the embroidery into a vanity
case - fill out the appropriate box on the order form.
This piece can be worked by
beginner to advanced embroiderers.
