Simple and easy neckline embroidery for Kurtis and blouses

 Hi all

 Hope all are doing well and good.  Today I am happy to share with you a simple and easy neckline that can be used for blouses and Kurtis.  

This neckline uses parallel running stitch and twisted fly stitch.  It can be embroidered very quickly.  

VideoTutorial

I have used 3 strands of thread for parallel running stitch and 6 strands of thread for twisted fly stitch.  Also I have glued half Pearl beads at the end of twisted fly stitch.  Instead you can make French knots with 12 strands & 1 wrap.  This also looks good in monochromatic colour.  

Below is the complete neck pattern for the blouse with  5 and a half inch depth in the back. You can print it in a A4 paper and can use it for your personal use.  

Hope all of you like this design.  See you soon with another simple embroidery work.  Till then, have a nice day and have a happy time with your needle and thread.

Lazy Daisy Popcorn Stitch tutorial

Hi all

Hope all are doing well and good.  Today I have come up with the embroidery stitch tutorial for lazy daisy popcorn stitch.  It is an easy stitch.  It can be used as petals for flowers and buds.  

Let's move on to the tutorial.  

I have used 6 strands of thread for this tutorial.

1)  Do a straight stitch first.

2)  Bring the needle up below the straight stitch

3)  Insert a pin from top as shown to have equal length loops.

4)  Loop the thread over the needle, pass the needle down the straight stitch without picking up the fabric.  The needle should be above the thread.  

5)  Pull through the needle and thread.  One loop is formed.  

6)  Make 5 such loops right side to the previous one.

7)  This is how it looks after making the 5 loops.

8)  Now remove the pin.  You can see 5 loops.

9)  Pass the needle through the loops from right to left.

10)  The working thread should lie behind the needle.

11)  Holding the loops with the left hand wrap the thread once around the needle from left to right.

12)  Pull through the thread through the wrap made and tighten the knot.

13)  Anchor the thread at the point where the pin is place first.

A lazy daisy popcorn stitch is made.  

If working for a petal 5 loops will look good. For buds 3 loops is enough.  I have worked a simple design using this popcorn stitch.  You can view it here and pattern is also available.  

Also a video tutorial is available in my youtube channel.  Kindly watch it and give your support.  

Hope this tutorial is helpful.  Do try it out and give your feedbacks in the comments section.

So here it is.

I have chosen the first letter of my name and so it is ‘s’.  The centre flower is done using satin stitch with French knots in the centre.  The other two flowers are done using woven rose stitch.  Leaves are done using fern stitch and lazy daisy stitch.  The alphabet is embroidered using back stitch.  I love the outcome and I finished it in a hoop and glued white round beads to the edges of the hoop.
