How to embroider with your own hands?
If you decide to get creative, be it embroidery or mosaic, follow the step-by-step instructions and you can make sure that there is nothing complicated about it. The procedure itself is a great pleasure, moreover, the end result will become an interior decoration.
When doing the work, you need to take into account some of the nuances.
- If there is an embroidery pattern, it is important to adhere to it. The position of the sewn sequins cannot be changed, make sure they do not bend. Ironing the decor is prohibited, the high temperature deforms the product.
- You can sew in different ways, there are several types of stitches. For example, a four-stitch seam is suitable when a sequin needs to be securely fastened. To do this, one sequin is applied to the fabric, and a needle with a thread is threaded from the back side, moves from the center to the edges, the stitches must be hidden under 2-3 decorative elements. There is also a seam called "back to the needle", the needle goes to the front side through the sequin, and then it is stuck in from the right and comes out to the left, after which it goes through the middle to the wrong side. Such a mount will be reliable.
- If you want to hide the stitches, the technique is the same, while the next sequin should cover half of the previous one, so the threads will not be visible at all. With this technique of embroidery, you will have to spend a lot more sequins, but the picture will look more voluminous and richer.
