Materials and tools for embroidery with beads

Beaded needle

They are numbered according to thickness.The thickness is selected in accordance with the caliber of the beads selected for the work. There are situations when the fabric used as a base is so thick that a thin beading needle breaks when passing through it. In this case, you will additionally need a thicker needle, with which a puncture is made in the fabric, and only then the main bead is threaded. It also happens: the beads are of such a small caliber that they cannot be threaded even through the thinnest needle. Then the embroidery technique becomes more complicated. First, the thread is fixed on the base, and its end is lubricated with glue. After drying, the thread is removed from the needle, and the beads are put directly on it. Then the thread is threaded through the needle again and a seam is made.

Threads
The most popular materials are used for bead embroideryvarious threads. The main requirement for them is good strength and wear resistance. The color, as a rule, is chosen to match the base. It will be easier to work with nylon thread if you wax it first. This gives additional rigidity, which makes it easier to thread through the eye of the needle.
Beads
Beads, glass beads, glass beads, sequins and other materials that can be used. Before you start working, you need to make sure that the material is of good quality.

Take some beads, wet them and rub thembetween the palms - it should not lose its color. The pearl coating of the beads should also be of good quality, otherwise it will quickly peel off during use. In addition, small beads, the quality of which leaves much to be desired, can simply melt when washing, steaming or ironing the fabric.
Hoops, tapestry frames or looms. The choice depends on the size of the product. For beginners in bead embroidery, hoops are most likely suitable.
Embroidery fabric
It should be chosen based on practical considerations.considerations. The base should not wrinkle or get dirty too much. You should also consider what material you will be embroidering with. If these are, for example, heavy glass beads, they will inevitably deform the fabric that is too thin.

Canvas with printed design for embroiderywith beadsBefore you start working, you need to copy the pattern you will be embroidering onto the fabric. This is done using carbon paper, chalk or soap. If the pattern needs to be transferred to knitwear, which is known to stretch a lot, causing additional inconvenience, you need to attach a sheet of tracing paper with the pattern applied to it to the material and stitch it. After this, the tracing paper is carefully torn off, and the threads with which the pattern was stitched remain.
It is also widely used for bead embroidery.canvas with a pattern applied directly to it, which greatly simplifies the embroidery process. This technology requires the correct size of beads to match the cells - too large will result in the product sticking out, and too small will not look good, revealing the pattern underneath.
It is widely used now and
, where as auxiliary materialSoutache is used - a cotton braid consisting of two twisted strands that are connected to each other lengthwise. However, for beginners in embroidery it is unlikely to seem easy.
Before using any type of technique, it would be useful to watch a video that shows a master class dedicated to this topic.

Securing beads with embroidery

To fix one small beads can besew as a button. The needle need to display on the front side, thread the bead and again come out on the wrong needle. The stitch length is equal to the diameter of the bead. If the bead is large, it is best to use an additional small beads. On the needle with a thread strung first main bead and then a little, which will serve as a "lock". Next, the needle again passes through the large bead only in the opposite direction, leaving the underside surface of the fabric. This bead should not be so small to leave a large hole in the beads, otherwise nothing happens.
Sewing on sequins is similar to this method, only instead of a bead, a sequin is used, and the beads again secure it.

It has the same principle, but there is not a column made of two and more elements.
To stitch a whole row of beads, there are several types of seams, which are divided into one-sided and two-sided.

Unilateral types of stitches

  • "Forward needle". On the stitch from the front whenever worn beads. This stitch, respectively, will be equal to the length of the bead. On the reverse side is performed stitch smaller needle and re-emerges. embroidery technique here is the same as in the consolidation of the single beads on the principle of the buttons described above;


Stitch forward with needle

  • "Stalked". On the matter fixed on a thread strung beads. Then iglavvoditsya the fabric and again displayed behind it (of beads). Next, the needle again goes through the same hole beads strung and immediately the second. The needle is again introduced in the foundation and have displayed between the two beads of passing through the strung vtoruyu.Srazu third, and so on. Some should be placed tightly. This embroidery comes hard;


Stem suture

  • "Lowercase". On the needle strung beads. Next, the needle is inserted into the tissue just behind her and once again displayed on the distance from the first beads equal to its length to accommodate the next. String, this is the next, and the needle is inserted into the tissue between it and the first bead. To the solid line was obtained, it is necessary to sew beads is very tight, but see to it that the inline-bristled. More dense and smooth lines make the thread, stretched her way forward through the beaded number;


Topstitch

  • "Couched stitch technique." The beads are strung on a thread and fit into the designated pattern. Then this thread need to sheathe across each beads (but it is possible and within two or three) small cross stitches;


Seam "in fastening"

  • "arched". It applies when dense tissue biserak diligence is not necessary at all or it is undesirable. For each stitch with the front face there are several beads, and only the latter is fastened by means of
    ;


Arched seam

  • "Monastery". Used equipment vyshivkipolukrestom. In this method, the needle comes out on the front side, it is strung a bead, and then made a stitch diagonally up or down. On the reverse side is already a vertical stitch (or up or down), and the needle goes out again.

Bilateral types of stitches

The principle of embroidery does not change, the seams are the same. Just like beads strung on the front side and the reverse side.

  • "Forward needle". During each pass strung on beads, and from the front, and on the reverse side. The stitch will now be the same on both sides and match the size of the beads;
  • "Stalk-row." The needle is threaded beads, then it appears on the reverse. On the inside of the seam is also attached beads. Then the needle is again discharged to the outside before the first, and is passed through it. Immediately third strung beads and a needle is inserted into the tissue. On the wrong side again put on another bead and the needle comes out between the first two, and so on. At the end of the series string is drawn into the unit and carried through the entire range of backing in order to align it;
  • "Couched stitch technique." In figure fit beads strung on a thread. If the firmware of the filament cross-stitches from the inside out and put on the beads. For extra durability, finished binding, thread through the bead slide number seamy side.
