Embroidery Method

STICKING EMBROIDERY


It’s also called Flower Sticking Embroidery or Flower Mending Embroidery, an embroidery form that other fabric would be cut and stitched on the clothes. The way to make it is to cut the fabric according to the pattern and then stitch it on the embroidery surface. And to make the figures a solid feeling, sometimes cotton would be added between the embroidery surface and the stitched fabric as underlay. After that, the edge would be over handed. The method of Sticking Embroidery is simple and majority of its patterns are fairly big with decent taste.

Recommended Usage

Could be used as Table Cloth, or Wall Hanging

Maintenance

NO WASH

Background:

I got to know Miao embroidery from one of my friends who is an embroidery art collector, and was soon overwhelmed by this shining, quality and precious folk art. The Miao, who make these embroideries, are one of China’s oldest nationalities, where their own history can be traced back more than 4000 years. During the long time, Miao embroidery has been one of the de-facto ways for them to record their national history, mythology and daily life since they don’t have an established written form for their own language. Almost every Miao woman is good at embroidering. They are used to embroidering their dress clothes, skirts, shoes, hats, socks, scarves, handkerchiefs and even common dress with unsophisticated, unique, complicated, exaggerated figures and designs. Young girls wear new costumes with rich embroidering at the festivals, to find their marriage partners…… Miao embroidery has been considered as one of the most exquisite arts by people. Because of its precious collecting value, it has been collected by personal lovers and the world’s famous art museums. Many people also mount them to decorate their lovely home.
