Technique Bargello embroidery (bargello).

 

Technique Bargello embroidery (bargello) is known as the Florentine stitch or Hungarian embroidery. This way of embroidery, arose in the 15th century. Most often, this technique used for embroidery, curtains, upholstery and tablecloths. Just Bargello was popular in 70th years 20 century! Now this kind of embroidery again becoming more popular. But what is after all this?

Bargello technique consists of a series of parallel stitches, located in a zigzag curve, and they are repeated in various shades of thread. The dimension of the puzzle depends on the number of threads of a skein and the location of the next stitch. That is, for example, we need a smoother transition, while the stitches are offset by a cell and / or consecutive 3.2-stitch the same length. If you need sharp transitions, the shift is from 3 or more cells and a row at one level have not put stitches.

Traditionally, the length of the stitches should be the same for all the work.

Bargello embroidery on canvas uniform of wool, linen or cotton. The most important thing – three sotavlyayuschih: number of motive and the angle of the bevel. The simplest design: in the first row set the basic direction and width of the “steps”, the subsequent series of other colors reproduce the design.

Because historically the Bargello technique used to decorate furniture upholstery, this technique embroidered clothing, handbags and even shoes, then in our time can be embroidered, for example, lampshades.

But if the equipment still seems to you a new and complex, try to start the needle bed, or embroider a small box in the postcard! Good luck!
