Drawn thread embroidery on a guest towel<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image admin_label=”ling fini” src=”https:\/\/canevasfolies.ch\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/serviette-finie-1.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” url_new_window=”off” use_overlay=”off” animation=”off” sticky=”off” align=”center” force_fullwidth=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” \/][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]\n

Here are the pictures and explanations needed to help you realise a small guest towel with drawn thread embroidery.<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

To make this work you need a towel with an Aida strip (generally intended for counted cross stitch) and Perle cotton n \u00b0 8 (at least 30m). I also advise you to work with a tapestry needle with round tip, for example, n \u00b0 24. This will avoid you to hang the tip in the neighbouring threads and your work will be thus perfectly clean.<\/span><\/h4>\n

This project presents no difficulty and is well adapted to the learning of drawn thread embroidery.<\/span><\/h4>\n

I chose to make 2 strips of different drawn thread designs on the Aida part of 7 cm of this towel.<\/span><\/h4>\n

The first part of this small project will be devoted to the placement of the patterns and then to the removal of the horizontal threads.<\/span><\/h4>\n

In the second part, I will show you how to securely complete the edges of the strips of drawn threads, and then we shall attach these threads in bundles\u00a0using a four-sided stitch.<\/span><\/h4>\n

To finish, in the 3rd part of this project, we will embroider 2 strips of drawn thread with different patterns.<\/span><\/h4>\n

On a band height of 7 cm and 39 squares, you can see here the height of the strips of\u00a0drawn threads.<\/span><\/h4>\n

If the Aida strip of your towel is different, it does not matter, you just need to keep about the same distribution as in this example.<\/span><\/h4>\n

I advise you, however, to choose a cloth whose squares of the Aida\u00a0band are not too big to avoid a too thick drawn thread pattern.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Here is how the different stitches are distributed on the strip.<\/span><\/h4>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_image admin_label=”sch\u00e9ma carr\u00e9s en” src=”https:\/\/canevasfolies.ch\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/schema-points-blog-e.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” url_new_window=”off” use_overlay=”off” animation=”off” sticky=”off” align=”center” force_fullwidth=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” \/][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text 2″ background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]\n

In this picture, you see the number of squares necessary to embroider the 2 bands of drawn threads surrounded by their\u00a0four-sided stitches.<\/span><\/h4>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_image admin_label=”sch\u00e9ma blog carr\u00e9 e” src=”https:\/\/canevasfolies.ch\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/schema-blog-e.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” url_new_window=”off” use_overlay=”off” animation=”off” sticky=”off” align=”center” force_fullwidth=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” \/][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text 4″ background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]\n

Split the fabric vertically over the entire height of each strip drawn threads. <\/span><\/h4>\n

Pull the threads horizontally across the width of the towel taking care to leave about 3 cm of uncut yarns at each end of the strips. They will be held in the satin stitch that we will embroider at each end of these strips to have a solid finish.<\/span><\/h4>\n

To remove the threads easily, I split the fabric regularly every 4 cm approximately. This makes it possible not to draw too long threads and thus not to damage the fabric.<\/span><\/h4>\n
