A project finished today for Fibre&Stitch zine in June. Made with card covered with embroidered teabag paper

First finished item for the #selfishswap. Dandelion mug rug, Embroidery Library design slightly edited.

However...........

My current piece is both.

Machine embroidery, die cut flowerstems, hand embroidery

and paint

In order to create this line of foliage, I machine embroidered the stems on to a base of grey metallic chiffon which was backed with paper. After machining, I removed the paper, heat treated the chiffon and then painted the remaining paper fragments with pigment ink

I had to balance out the young couple with an old couple :)

I have used metallic machine embroidery thread to stitch a portrait on to black chiffon.

A rabbit loving friend had a significant birthday. Mixed together with some machine embroidery, an AA Milne quote and a vintage throat pastile tin and this is the result.

The first bonnet to be finished. Only another two to go... and so little time!

This one was a dream to work. It's made from a piece of non-woven interfacing I had lying around which I machine stitched and then zapped with the heat gun.

This stiffened the bonnet considerably, but darkened it too, so I painted it with irredescent tinting medium, one of my favourite paints.

The daisy border is made from silk, embroidery and paint.

Quite cute, until you realise that is that this is supposed to represent Emma Sproson trying to hold on to her sanity when in solitary confinement for her Suffrage activities. Her dreams of the daisies of her childhood kept her grounded.

This piece is stitched on a Bernina 750 industrial using just a straight stitch and rayon and polyester threads.

I've never been hugely into yellow and orange before, but I can't get enough of it right now.

Just as well because I keep finding vintage florals on my thrifty trips :)

made using embroidery designs from EmbLibrary.com

There was a stain on this shirt that would not come out, so I buried it under embroidery stitching. Design is from Urban threads.com and called "Elegant Bat".

A better shot of the little button-eyed owl. I wish I'd moved him a bit closer to the brim, but he's cute anyway.

We’ve long been trying to prove that machine embroidery can be more than teddy bears and butterflies, and even more than that, a legitimate art in itself. Machine embroidery is not what you think. Don’t believe me? Take a closer look…

 

This piece the Crane Wife is an experiment in using commercial machine embroidery in a whole new way. Check out full details and some progress shots on our new blog!

After watching Pirates II: Stagnetti's Revenge, this is definitely the case. [on etsy]

My way of beating rising heating costs and looking crafty all at the same time. I love hot water bottles, but I thought I should give them a much needed style update.

Knitted and croched wall hanging. I have surface stitched this with machine embroidery and added an applique drawing on resin paper which has also been machine embroidered.

Just a little bit of fun for a sunny day!

Well, I started out making a ITH sleeve for a cup (like Starbucks or such), but it turned out too small, so now I have an arm cuff! lol

I'll have to work on making a two part sleeve that will actually fit a cup.

Otherwise, I like how it turned out.

I used Urban Thread's skull cherries design and repeated it three times around the *cuff*.

Machine embroidery on painted fabric

The project idea for this was to take our designs and see how well we could incorporate them into a full fashion jacket, and somehow (not surprisingly) that turned into a full-on heavy stitched steampunk project!

Para guardar as coisas organisadas!!!

  

I am FINALLY done with this group of blocks!!!PHEW!! I have never made so many mistakes and had to start over so many times. These blocks are only 6" and will be set on the diagonal in the quilt. I sit a dime on one of the middle blocks for comparision. View original view so you can see details.

Made using an in-the-hoop design from Embroidery Garden

Just doodling with the sewing machine.

I laid the off cuts of wool from my current project on to a painted piece of interfacing and then machine embroidered on top.

I added details in pen and paint, and then backed it with scraps of paper and interfacing.
