Embroidery History Return to Sampler Main Page I have eliminated the Navigation Bar on this page so that you can make your own personal copy. Just return to the Main Sampler Page to move around Beadwrangler's. E mbroidery and most other fiber and needlework arts are believed to originate in the Orient and Middle East. Primitive humankind quickly found that the stitches used to join animal skins together could also be used for embellishment. Chinese bead embroidery in Siberia, 5000 and 6000B.C., include elaborately drilled shells stitched with decorative designs onto animal hides. Mosaics of Byzantium, 500A.D., depict embroidery of clothing with silk thread, precious stones and pearls. It is possible the Chinese thread embroidery from 3500B.C. was the origin of thread embroidery as we know it today. Recorded history, sculptures, paintings and vases depicting inhabitants of various ancient civilizations wearing thread embroidered clothing date back over 3,000 years including those found in Greece 400B.C., and Babylon and Syria, 700A.D. Archeological excavations in Ur, 1544, revealed high standards of thread embroidery from ancient times such as a pure gold thread embroidered and woven shroud in the tomb of Empress Honorius dating 400A.D. The gold threads were melted down and weighed 36 pounds in pure metal. It is a shame such a historical item was destroyed. When techniques for manufacture of smaller beads and drilling bead holes evolved, beads were more commonly used with embroidery along with the invention of fine steel needles. Art movements and social and economical events affected beadwork design including bead embroidery.

9. The Science Of Canvas Embroidery The Science of canvas embroidery* or - the "weakest links" of it frees your second hand to lay or control fibers wear on your fibers - canvas won't move or wobble while http://www.needlepoint-stlouis.org/science.html

American Needlepoint Guild Gateway Chapter - St. Louis, MO The Science of Canvas Embroidery* - or - the "weakest links" of needlepoint September 2001 program Prepared by Denise Beusen with input from the members of the Gateway Chapter of ANG Wash your hands before picking up your work and don't eat while you're stitching. Don't handle or "stroke" fibers once they're stitched. Why? Oils in foods or lotions will oxidize over time and discolor your work. Oils attract dirt, which also discolors your work. Unlike counted cross-stitch, needlepoint isn't washable Corollary : consider the intended use of your piece. If it's destined to receive heavy use, stay with wool or cotton. Stitch with your canvas on a stretcher bar frame and periodically remove your canvas to retighten the tension on it. Tacks and staples should be no more than 2" apart. Why? your finisher will love you - less blocking; some fibers can't be dampened at all or enough to reverse distortions it frees your second hand to lay or control fibers less wear on your fibers - canvas won't move or wobble while you stitch easier to maintain constant tension To attach canvas to stretcher bars make sure frame is square align the warp and weft with the frame staple or tack the center of one edge tug the canvas to the opposite side and staple or tack pull one canvas corner taught and secure it; do the opposite corner and then the other two corners
