[My Personal Page] CROSS STITCHING clwydneedlecrafts Used with Permission. INTRODUCTION Have you ever seen cross stitching products? What do you think about cross stitching? These days, DIY ( Do It Yourself ) is very common, and people enjoy and make DIY products. Maybe you are a person who enjoys and is crazy about DIY products: To make something by oneself for personal fulfillment. So they love and are mad in products. Cross stitching is one kind of DIY. It is also one kind of needlework made with X-shaped stitches, and it is easier and more enjoyable than the other crafts. This paper will explain about DIY, the history of cross stitching, cross stitching materials, and how to cross stitch. TOP HISTORY OF CROSS STITCH Verso (2000) says that cross stitching has a long history. Before looking at the history of cross stitch, we must look back to the very beginnings of embroidery, since it is only relatively recently that cross stitch has been used as the sole stitch in a piece. The earliest incomplete of embroidered cloth includes cross stitch and dates back to the sixth or seventh centuries AD. It was found in a Coptic tomb in Upper Egypt, where it was prevented by the dry desert climate. By the eleventh century, the most famous of all early embroideries, the Bayeux tapestry, was being worked. This is not actually a tapestry in the strict sence (that is, a woven textile), but an embroidery, describing the Norman invasion of England in 1066.

Making Bead Embroidery Samples Part I Beadwork May/June 2000 Return to Sampler Main Page I have eliminated the Navigation Bar on this page so that you can make your own personal copy. Just return to the Main Sampler Page to move around Beadwrangler's. E General Instructions Thread the embroidery needle with thick thread, double it, about 40" putting 20" on each side. Make a knot in the end and cut off the excess thread. Take the needle through the counted fabric from the back to front, at the top left or right edge, beginning in the 2 nd stitch from the top. Make sure the thread is taut and take the needle from the front to back over the top of the fabric and back through the next stitch: making a loop around the edge of the fabric, continue to the end. Then turn the piece to the back side, pull the needle through all the stitches to the other end and cut off the excess thread. For each row of beads in each sample, thread the beading/sharps needle with beading thread, double it, about 40" placing 20" on each side. Make a knot in the end and cut off the excess thread ends. Knots are not used in most thread embroidery, however, when stitching with beads the thread requires knots at the beginning and ending of stitch rows to keep the beads from pulling loose. Use Fray Stop on the knot to make sure it does not come loose. I use a disposable lighter on my beading thread ends. Each time a row is finished, make a knot, cut off the excess thread and begin the next row with new thread. Pull the thread taut after each stitch. Each time beads are strung onto the fabric, take the needle through to the back side, pull the thread taut. By alternating the bead colors, the thread path is easy to identify. Each count begins in the stitch following the last bead stitched.

JACKSON SQUARE New Orleans is ranked as one of the top places in the US to visit. It is a large city with a small city feel. If you are fortunate enough to visit our city and meet some "real New Orleanians", you will find that they are the friendliest, warmest people you may ever know. They will welcome you with open arms. We have listed here a selection of cross stitch charts that depict the culture of the city. You will see a large selection of charts related to food. That's because in New Orleans we live to eat. Our food is sooooo good. And you can always find a place to eat that open - no matter the time of day or night. Some of the best eateries are neighborhood restaurants. Next to our food, we pride ourselves on the diverse architecture of the city. Many charts feature this architecture. And of course, there's always Mardi Gras. It's the biggest party on earth. Although it officially begins on January 6th (King's Day or Twelfth Night), we are fond of saying there are two seasons in New Orleans, Mardi Gras and pre-Mardi Gras. Pre-Mardi Gras begins on Ash Wednesday (the day after Mardi Gras) when the krewes begin planning for the next year.
