Module SIX – Chapter 5 – FREE MACHINE STITCHING TO INTERPRET DRAWINGS – PART 2


I add eight more samples based on other drawings from Chapter 1. As before I have enlarged the drawings to see all minute marks and placed them before embroidered samples.
This time I have left my sample photos uncut to show the undulating or irregular shapes fabrics take after embroidering.

 SAMPLE NINE (approximately 13 x 13 cm)
The background is dyed woven linen and has   been machine embroidered in zigzag whip stitch with heavy distortion and puckering of the fabric.





Sample 9 bis

 SAMPLE 10 (around 11 x 11 cm)
This background is three layered: muslim on the back for support, bluish cheesecloth as a middle layer and a flimsy white cotton weave on top. Wool yarns were fixed on it with free zigzag, the white top layer was slashed in several spots to show the blue underneath and freely oversewn in zigzag stitch.




Sample 10 bis

 SAMPLE 11 (around 13 x 16 cm)
The gauze was covered in blocks of free satin stitches which formed holes in the fabric and heavily distorted it.
I did my best with the photo but details show badly despite all my efforts. 



Sample 11 bis
