On such material it is very convenient to embroider a cross. It is an excellent option for beginners. Also for this type of needlework cardboard or velvet paper is used. With these fundamentals it is somewhat more difficult to work, because it is not always possible to calculate the tension of a thread or incorrectly position a hole.
Threads In addition, special attention should be paid toGive the choice of thread for embroidery. In principle, any smooth materials will work. Regardless of the thickness and raw materials from which they are made. Completely suitable thread will be linen, cotton or silk. The best are the threads of the mulina and iris.

Peculiarities of embroidery on cardboard
This kind of needlework has its secrets and rules. And in order for the product to work they must be adhered to:
- On paper, not every embroidery will look beautiful. For the first time, it's better not to experiment, but to choose an already-proven drawing;
- It is better not to use twisted threads. This can break the paper. For the same reason, one should not embroider a very large bundle of threads;
- Do not enter and withdraw a needle several times in the same hole. Cardboard can be spoiled;
- If the circuits require frequent insertion of the thread into the same puncture, it is better to use a thin thread;
- In the case where color transitions are visible on the product, after the end of work on the reverse half, a piece of paper or some kind of fabric should be glued;
- Embroidery on cardboard is performed by the method of filling corners, circles and arc-shaped elements. The main methods of embroidery on cardboard.
Filling the corner On the back of the baseThe angular contour of the future image is drawn. On the lines are marked with a pencil point on the same boring one from the other. To make a drawing there is a clear gap between them you need to do minimal. Each mark is pierced with an awl or pin. All holes are better numbered, respectively, the circuit.
The thread is cut into a needle and, by pulling inHoles, fill the entire image. Patterns on the front and back sides will be different. On the face intersecting threads create a triangle with one concave side, on the wrong side the stitches are located only on the angular sides.
Filling the circle On the back of the baseWith the help of a circular, a circle is drawn and pencil marks are made. According to the marked points of the circuit, holes are made that must be an even number. Filling this figure with threads should be done starting from any hole. The size of the finished drawing depends on the distance between two points on the circle. The smaller this segment, the wider will be the interior of the circle and already its border.
Arc embroidery Circuits in the form of arcs are drawn onThe wrong side of the work, and are divided into equal parts. Shiloh holes are made. Start filling with the starting point. The length of the stitches is one third of the arc. The smaller the length of the segments, the thinner the image of the arc will be.
