 What is It
Do you know that tools and materials have their own uses? It is very
important that we have an idea how to use them to avoid accident/injury. In this
lesson, we will learn the different tools and materials in embroidery.

Development of Philippine Embroidery

Embroidery is the ornamentation of textiles and other items with needle work
not only for home use and decoration but also for offices. The term embroidery is an
English word derived from ancient French embroidery, meaning border and edge.
The Netherlanders brought embroidery into the Orient in the 15 th century. It was
purchased in the Philippines by that Spaniards where it has made a marvelous
growth, and the work done rivals the best work done in Switzerland, a country noted
for its exquisite embroidery.
During the Middle Ages, the embroidery achieved its highest development.
During their leisure time the nuns in the convents were the first to create
articles with embroidery work. It has become so popular since then, that
women have started to enjoy it, creating their own design. Embroideries were
done by hand in the beginning. But with the advent of technology and the
sewing machine invention, people are now engaged in the embroidery work
due to the industry’s rapid growth, elegance od designs, and fineness of
workmanship. Embroidery work is best accomplished when using correct
tools and materials. Tools are applied to the small or useful sewing devices
while materials the ones consumed while finishing a project.

Below are the tools and materials use in Embroidery, its uses and
maintenance.
Gauge- use for short distance measurement.

Tape measure- use for measuring distance of more than one foot

to trim scallops, cut threads and cut large eyelets.
Needle threader- a tool used to thread a needle for those sewers
with poor eyesight.
Pounce- is fine powder used by pricking method when
transferring material.
Embroidery needle- A small piece of steel where at one end has
a fine point and a little gap like an eye at the other.
a. Crewell - Sizes 1-10 are sharp-pointed, medium-length, with
wide eyes for quick threading, used in most embroidery
stitching.
b. Chenille- Sizes 13-26 are still sharp needles but thicker and
longer and have wider eyes. They are the styles of needles
appropriate for embroidery which is worked with heavier yarns.
c. Tapestry needle- Sizes 13-26, they are similar in size to
chenille but blunt instead of pointed. This makes them perfect
for embroidery thread-counting and even for the needle point.
Water color brush- Using methods for pricking and pouncing to
pass pattern.
Pin cushion- a tool where the pins and needles in place.

Tracing paper- used to trace the designs.

Sewing box- is a tool where embroidery tools and materials keep

together.

Materials
1. Fabric- often called fabric, they are of great variety and differ
in material, weight, weaving, style, color and finish.
a. Common weave- comprises the tightest woven fabrics with a
fairly smooth surface, such as linen, wool and cotton.
b. Even-weave- is intended for hardanger embroidery where the
threads are the same for warp and woof per square inch.
c. Basket weave- ramie linen is commonly used by beginners. It
offers instructions for cross-stitching and smocking having a
pattern that is equally spaced like gingham fabric and polka dots.
2. Thread- has various types, they differ in texture, color, number
of strands and fiber content. Threads are normally coded in
numbers and name of colors.

you have clue on how to make Split and Back stitch.
Embroidery Stitches
The following are the procedures in embroidery stitches. (Running stitch, Split
stitch, Stem stitch, Back stitch, French knot stitch)
A. Running Stitch Procedure
1. Thread the needle and make a knot at the end of the
thread. Arm length of thread is recommended to avoid
tangle and knots. Bring the needle to point A
2. Then take it down to the desired length at point "B."

3. Again, put the desired length to point "C" and take it

down to point D.
4. Keep working like this, up and down, at the lengths
you like.
B. Split Stitch Procedure
1. Thread the needle. Take the thread out of A and bring
it in through B.
2. Bring the needle backwards to bring it out through C.
Remember that C lies between A and B half way
through. While you're bringing the thread through C,
take it in break it in two between the thread.
3. Again, put the needle in through D to take it out
through B, splitting the thread.
4. Continue this procedure to finish the stitch. The only
thing to keep in mind is splitting the thread.
C. Stem Stitch Procedure
1. Begin by inserting the needle at point A and take it
down through B. Bring the needle backward and take
the thread out through C. Note that point C is the
midpoint of A and B. Take the needle up at point C and
pull the thread up.
2. Bring the needle at point D and take the needle out
through B. The point B will lie half way.

 3. Keep working like this for the rest of the pattern.

D. Back Stitch Procedure

1.Bring up the needle at point A as shown in the image.
Pull up the thread and get it down at B at your desired
length. That would be exactly like a straight stitch.
2.You are creating a stitch by taking the thread
backward.
3.A finished line of back stitch will look like this.

E. French Knot Stitch Procedure

1. Bring the needle up at point A and pull the thread
up.
2. When the thread is drawn up, loop the thread around
the needle right at the end of the thread.
3. Hold the thread and needle with your fingers and
gently bring the needle down at point B. The point B
should be just beside point A and not too far away.
Also, make sure that you do not push the needle down
at point A. Gently pull down the thread until the
thread
is fully pulled through the knot.
4. You can continue to work on more knots or tie the
thread at the back and cut it.

The following are the procedures in embroidery stitches. (Lazy Daisy Chain
stitch, Herringbone stitch, Satin stitch, Cross stitch, Bullion stitch)
F. Lazy Daisy Chain Stitch Procedure
1. Begin by inserting a needle from underneath the fabric at
point A. Bring the needle up with the thread
2. Then insert the needle again at point A and point B. The
desired distance from above while keeping the floss
underneath the needle, as shown in the picture above.
3. Pull the needle gently along with the thread. Please be
careful not to tighten it too much. Keep a little loop lost to
make a chain.
4. Push the needle out of the loop at point C and take it down
with the thread.
5. And then bring the needle to the desired distance. This is
to make the second petal. Repeat the process like the first
petal and work on the rest of it.
G. Herringbone Stitch Procedure
1. Begin by bringing the thread out at point A.

2. Pull the thread up and insert the needle at point B.

Without pulling the thread down, push it through at point
C.

3. Then, insert it at point D and bring it out at point E.

4. Continue to work on the pattern in a similar way

5. Work till the end of the design and take the needle down.

H. Satin stitch Procedure

1
 1. Take the needle out of A and put it in through B. So, that
makes a stitch that covers a small area between the stitch
lines.
2. Now, take the needle back through C, it's close to A.
Continue this action over the two lines of stitch.
3. Once finished, the area is filled as shown in the picture.
You 're going to spend as much thread on the other side.
Side, just like you do on the actual side of the fabric.
I. Cross stitch Procedure
1. Take the needle out of A and take it diagonally across to B.
Bring it back through the C, which lies vertical below the A.
2. Now place the needle in through D, which lies vertically
above B. You’ve made a single cross.

cross. Now, bring the needle out to the third cross through
the previous point E. Continue with this process.

needle out through A and put the needle through B at the
desired length.
2. Now, get the needle out again through A. Then, wind the
thread around the needle. The distance of the wound
thread should measure the same as the distance between A

the needle out with the other finger. Keep pulling the needle
in an upward direction till the wraps lay on the fabric.
