Embroidery of multi-colored butterflies according to patterns
We suggest you make an embroidery of a butterfly with beautiful multi-colored wings. The scheme is not easy, it is carried out by a cross.
For this we will need:
- canvas;
- floss threads (colors by numbers can be seen under the diagram);
- special needles (they need to be selected correctly, according to the size of the canvas);
- scissors;
- hoop.
First, we recommend that you overcast the edges of the canvas,so that they do not fray during the creation process. You can do this either yourself or with a machine. You can skip overcasting and coat the edges of the canvas with quick-drying glue or clear nail polish.
Since the work is voluminous, you will have to embroider it.a lot, we recommend that you make markings on the fabric, the same as in the diagram (squares 10 by 10 cells). You can do this with a special water marker, which is easily removed with water, or mark with ordinary colored threads and pull them out as you work.
First, let's determine the center of the canvas.To do this, you need to fold it exactly 4 times and make a corresponding mark for yourself. Start with the color of the thread that is present most. In our case, it is purple and yellow. It is better to choose yellow to start working with, since you can start with yellow threads right from the center of the fabric.
As you can see from the diagram, you need to make an edgingwings, patterns and antennae. This is done with a back stitch or, in some cases, with a "painting" stitch (forward work is done with odd stitches, and back - with even stitches).
After finishing the embroidery, especially if you did it onit is marked with a water marker, it is necessary to wash it, let it dry and iron it. Choose a beautiful frame, and the painting will very advantageously decorate any room in your house.
If you are just starting to embroider, and patterns with multiple color transitions are still difficult for you to execute, we suggest you cross-stitch a simpler butterfly.
To embroider according to this pattern you will need only seven colors of floss. The size of this butterfly pattern is also smaller than the previous one.
To begin with, as usual, we overcast the canvas orglue the edges together. Find the center of the work by folding the canvas in four and making a mark. Then, starting from the center, make the necessary markings (10 by 10 cells). After that, you need to decide on the color that is easier for you to start with, and you can start. To work according to this pattern, it is better to start with dark brown. In the center is the body of the butterfly, from which the dark brown threads will smoothly transition into the wings.
After finishing the embroidery, you need to do the overcasting. This is done with a back stitch. The overcasting is present in the wings, and will also serve as the antennae of the butterfly itself.
Having finished, we wash the canvas, dry it and iron it. We do this carefully so as not to spoil the work. Having selected a frame according to size, we insert the painting into it.
The cross-stitched pictures look verybeautiful and impressive in any interior. If you would like to please your loved ones or friends, embroidered fluttering butterflies will be a great gift that will not only please the eye, but will also be a symbol of happiness and well-being in the house.
