Embroidery : Net Work Instructions

chitti67 · Jul 16, 2008

hi friends this is lakshmi like to share the net work procedures..
.as in the pic ..start with detached buttonhole (blanket) stitch from the bottom of the petal of a flowr
.as the design ends bring the needle little above the design and start stitching interlacing the previous line of loops..
.then again start the next line and continue till the design ends..
. u may left some gap and u cont do another line..there u just made straight stitch frm the loop to the design wherever the gap remains..
then complete the design with chain or stem stitch..

tips:*the small the interlacing boxes the more beautiful is ur work
*while interlacing, the boxes come in square or rectangle shape...its also beautiful..for the honey comb shape u just pull the thread while interlacing..finishing looks beautiful....
*select the design so that it shud have big petals and those petals dont have many curves..
hope im successful in guiding u..
if u have doubts feel free to ask me..
for the design and finished work of network please check my other threads..designs for u and.. my embroidery works...

Wonderful tutorial Lakshmi!!

So long I have not been piercing the cloth at all except at the ends. So found it difficult to maintain the shape of the honeycomb. I shall try this method and let you know.. Thanks once again.
