Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Priscilla Hardanger Book: A Collection of Beautiful Designs in Hardanger Embroidery; With Lessons and Stitches As the square is the principle upon which Hardanger embroidery is based, any fabric woven with a square mesh so that warp and filling are the same size may be used. When the threads are drawn, a per fect square must always result. Hardanger canvas, manufactured especially for the purpose, is most commonly used, and the various sizes of scrim and Congress canvas are also suitable. Many dress materials are adapted to this work, and the possibilities of Hardanger embroidery directly upon the fabric of the dress, and worked in the same or harmonizing colors, is especially alluring to the feminine mind. The uses to which this beautiful embroidery may be put are many. With the Norwegian woman the apron is a most important part of her wardrobe, and this she decorates most elaborately. Hardanger embroidery makes an excellent decoration for curtains, portieres, and bed-spreads. It is a beautiful ornamentation for lunch-cloths, sideboard scarfs, buffet-covers, tray-cloths, bags, collars and cuffs, belts, blouses, towels, centrepieces, pillow-covers, and gowns. One pretty con ceit is the little Hardanger medallion used as the cover for button molds. When undertaking a piece of Hardanger embroidery the first thing to be done is to deeply overcast the edges of the canvas to prevent fraying. All work must be embroidered before any threads are cut. To cut and draw out the threads and then attempt to embroider is to invite trouble and disaster The canvas edges will ravel, the working thread will not lie in the proper position, and the cut edges will catch the thread to its injury.

Download or read book T B C Instructions and Designs for Hardanger Or Norwegian Embroidery Classic Reprint written by T. Buettner And Co. Inc and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-15 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from T. B. C. Instructions and Designs for Hardanger or Norwegian Embroidery Hardanger embroidery must be made on a material of which the warp and woof threads are the same thickness and evenly spaced in weaving. All Hardanger work is done by counting threads of the cloth. The solid embroidery or ornamental stitches are always made with a heavy thread for which size 5 T. B. C. Coton Perle, sizes 2 and 3, nun's Eleo Perle Hardanger Twist and Saxonia Embroidery Thread are especially adapted. The openwork is made of finer twisted threads such as No. 0 and No. 1 nun's Eleo Perle Hardanger Twist. Best results are obtained by using a frame or embroidery hoops when making solid or ornamental stitches. The cutting of threads and the openwork must be made out of the frame or hoops, for when the material is stretched tight it is difficult to draw the threads and to weave them together.
