To decorate our house, we use a lot of handmade ideas – among them a patchwork needlework, embroidery, and fabric applications that can be used to decorate interior pillows and many other things.
Fabric application is a type of embroidery that can be carried out both by hand and using a sewing machine. You will probably be interested to know how to choose a sewing machine, because with the help of this assistant to each needlewoman you can create a lot of beautiful things. It will also be useful to find out about the device of sewing machines, because this will allow this unit to use much more efficiently. If we talk about applications, then against the background of fabric, they are strengthened by sewing (you can also use gluing using a special double -sided web) of other pieces of fabric.
If we talk about materials for applications from fabric with your own hands, then it can be both natural and synthetic fabrics that have the most different texture – vile, smooth, matte shiny. The ideal choice for such a variety of needlework will be knitted cotton fabrics, felt, fur, felt, thin skin – they are good because the cut will not crumble. Excellent results can be observed when using flax, calico, chintz, organza.
Before starting work, it is necessary to draw a sketch of the future masterpiece in full size. Then the drawing through copying paper must be applied to the base from dense fabric (first it must be caressed well). Next, the patterns of applications from prepared fabrics are cut through the patterns and sewed.
