Learn to create embroidery with a diamond mosaic with your own hands, master classes for embroidery with diamond mosaic with photo and description.
To start working on diamond embroidery, youyou need to choose a plot you like in a ready-made set with everything you need to bring it to life. Let's look into the set and figure out its contents. We chose a plot that roughly corresponds to the A3 format, where a color scheme serves as the basis for embroidery. So, in the set we find:
- a detailed scheme with a division of the shades, applied to the canvas of cotton with a layer of glue;
- the key to the scheme;
- adhesive film with stones, necessary shades, fixed on the scheme (come across and packed in packages with numbers);
- pincetik, necessary for working with stones (in the absence of tweezers, it is replaced by a simple pencil).
Progress of work. 1.Since we have to work with many small elements that require a certain amount of concentration and visual strain, it is necessary to properly organize the workplace. It should be spacious, have a flat surface and excellent lighting. If these conditions are met, the work will be easy and pleasant. 2. After this, you need to very carefully separate a small piece of the pattern from the tape with crystals. Our advice is to peel off exactly as much as you can do in one session. Otherwise, the adhesive layer will wear off and the fixation of the mosaic will be insufficient. 3. In the case when the crystals are placed in bags, before embroidery they are laid out in suitable containers, on which it is desirable to apply markings with the corresponding numbers for each shade.4.Now let's get down to laying out the rhinestones. Using tweezers, grab a crystal whose number corresponds to the color of the pattern and carefully place it in the required cell on the pattern. This work must be done with 100% accuracy and strict adherence to technology. Apply gentle pressure with tweezers to each stone to ensure that all the details of the composition are secured and placed in the appropriate cells. If you press too hard, the glued element, in case of an error, will be difficult to fix. 5. Embroidery is done in horizontal rows in order, similar to working with beads. Many craftswomen prefer to embroider by color: first one shade, then another, filling the entire picture in this way. Here, as in any other creative process, ease of work is important, so try different options and you will choose the most comfortable style for yourself.6.If you come across rhinestones with chips or defective holes when working with embroidery, they should be put aside. The use of such stones is strictly excluded, because they will spoil the appearance of the finished product. 7. After laying out a number of rows, take a ruler made of metal and carefully align the rows made horizontally and vertically.8.When you finish working with the peeled off piece of the pattern, move on to another one, following the order of actions described above. 9. Having assembled all the diamond mosaic, once again align the edges to obtain a uniform structure of the canvas. 10. Having completed the laying and alignment, very carefully trim the embroidery along the edges with a knife or scissors. 11. For our example, the small size of the canvas did not require additional joining. When assembling large mosaics, you cannot do without precise joining of all the parts with subsequent filling in accordance with the pattern of the joint border. For this purpose, on each element of the canvas, it is necessary to leave one empty column where the joint will be. Mix the resulting parts end to end and lay out the empty columns with crystals of the necessary shades.12.In order to securely fix the mosaic pictures, they can be covered with a thin layer of glue. In our case, we placed the product under glass and in a frame. 13. Now we move on to creating a strong base for the product. A framing workshop will significantly save you time and will be the key to a quality result. But for real craftswomen who do everything with their own hands, the best way out is to decorate the product themselves.14.Here we will need: a piece of thick cardboard or plywood, a rubber roller, tape or glue, with which the embroidered satin stitch is glued. If you use glue for fixing, then carefully and consistently apply the base to the cardboard, while smoothing the canvas well with a rubber roller, so as not to allow distortions and the formation of bubbles.In cases where the design is not planned immediately,We recommend wrapping the finished work with the rhinestones facing out and placing it in a case to protect it from dust and dirt. This concludes our master class. Enjoy your needlework!
