    This has been my go-to reference for using a scroll bar for the first time. The piece I'm working with is a printed pillowcase. The problem is the main figures were printed right up to the hem. I'm having to extend the length by stitching cotton fabric to the edges and then attaching the herringbone ribbon to the cotton fabric. Maybe I should post this one on reddit as well. 😂 Thank you for your wonderful videos!

    Hi Sarah... If I am using a piece of fabric longer than the frame, I think you mentioned in the comments below that it's possible to roll the extra fabric on the roller. However, do I attach the herringbone tape just to the section of fabric being worked, then detach and reattach when I roll upwards to a new section of work? Or, do I attach a piece of herringbone to the entire piece of fabric then roll up the whole thing? I didn't know if this might distort the fabric with the extra bulk created?

Do you just use just fix a tape onto the entire length first? But we can predict that the sides will become bulky and the centre will be loose.

  • @pamtaylor7785
    @pamtaylor7785 8 років тому +1

    What if your fabric is much longer than the frame, and you will have to roll it several times? Does the herringbone tape move? Or do you do it for the entire fabric?
    Also, can you embroider on the underside (the side without the herringbone tape)? or only on the side with the herringbone tape?

    • @SarahHomfrayEmbroidery
      @SarahHomfrayEmbroidery  8 років тому +2

      +Pam Taylor These frames come in lots of different sizes so if you can get one that fits your fabric this is ideal. Sometimes you will need to roll it if you are working on a really big project. If so you can put herringbone tape on the whole length of fabric then roll it around the frame. This can become a bit bulky and there are other methods other than herringbone tape that can be used to tension the edges. I will try and cover these at some point! You can embroider on which ever side you like Pam, it's just easier to stitch the tape on the top side and stitch on the top side. Hope this helps!

Just a handful of years back there was very little online and it basically was just "Here is how to do a chain stitch, now good luck figuring out how to do everything else!" : ) Books were available but I couldn't afford them. I started using a regular embroidery hoop too which slows things down quite a bit. Anyway good luck! It's really enjoyable

    Hi Sarah, I love your videos and your impeccable techniques. I recently completed my first sampler that included long&short stitching areas (flower petals). My fabric made little valleys and ripples at the edges of the long/short and satin stitch areas. Do you think that it's because I did not have 4-way tension like you do and I only secured the top and bottom scrolls? Or, is it more likely that I pulled the stitches too tightly while working them?

    • @SarahHomfrayEmbroidery
      @SarahHomfrayEmbroidery  7 років тому +2

      Both of these thinks Peptiopen in conjunction with each other. Long and short shading can be very dense once worked, so make sure your fabric is at a tight tension all the way around and try to keep your stitches at a nice loose tension (take some deep breaths first!) and you should find you avoid the bubbles in the fabric. You might be able to pull them out if you mount it tightly around a board...

    • @SarahHomfrayEmbroidery
      @SarahHomfrayEmbroidery  4 роки тому +1

      The cotton fabric is the backing fabric, then you sew your embroidery fabric to the backing fabric Thomas. For the piece you are talking about, I only had a small piece of silk which is why it's sitting in the middle of the frame! You just pin one piece to the other on a loose frame (the two pieces of fabric need to be at the same tension when you join them together) nad sew on with either a herringbone stitche or a long and short stitch. Then tighten up the frame so that both pieces tighten to the same tension
