Instructions

1

When embroidering a cross, always choose a base with an equal number of threads in height and width. It is better for beginner embroiderers to use the canvas - specially designed for embroidery fabric.

2

For convenience, it is better to pull the work on the hoop - a special frame for embroidering.

3

Prepare the floss thread and needle for embroidery. The motorcycle floss consists of 6 separate threads. Length about 8 m. Crosses perform in several threads: the number of additions can be different, but it is better that they were 2-3.

4

When embroidering, do not make nodules. Fix the threads under the stitches to hide the tip, both at the beginning of the embroidering, and at the end.

5

Embroider a line of crosses in two steps: first embroider in the right amount of a line from the bottom stitches, then finish the crosses with the top stitches. Try to immediately get used to doing the bottom stitches of crosses from the top left side to the bottom right. If all the top stitches lie in one direction, then the embroidery will be more visual.

6

It is more convenient to study embroidery when a colored pattern is already printed on the fabric. Beginning needlewoman, it remains only to sew multi-colored squares with threads, matching the color.

7

When using the symbolic scheme,spend a little more time. A particular symbol corresponds to the crosses of each color. Select one symbol and, following the pattern, embroider the pattern with a thread of the appropriate color. Gradually move from one color area to another. For convenience, you can cross out the embroidered places with a pencil from the chart, so as not to be distracted from the remaining work.
