Tambour (or Luneville) embroidery and uses a tiny hook instead of a needle to create super fast chain-stitch work.

It started in 18th‑century France, and later became a foundation technique for Haute Couture houses like Chanel and Dior.

Here’s Alexandrina Dordea showing us this wonderful craft.

Finally finished these guys. I added the one with the weave on the one using letter pattern I owned. I realize now I should have put it down farther. Oh well, live and learn. #stitchcraft #crossstitch #Baldursgate3

I can tell you as I’m in the midst of doing this, I never want to do Astarion’s hair in crossstitch again. I’ll post it again when I’m done.

Did a bit of #VisibleMending on smallest daughter’s current favourite sweatpants. The bunnies are cute and always fun to use the #embroidery skills on something practical as well as appealing. #RepairReuseRecycle #Stitchcraft #HandSewing

This party dress has been much loved by several little girls in our family, resulting in the loss of one of the sash ties. Braided some ribbon in a similar shade and stitched it into the seam to make a new loop for the other long sash. Ready for a wash then a trip to the SPCA shop ready to brighten the day of another child.

Just made my first ever piece of clothing!

Made #hakama from very lightweight denim, for my best friend.

I changed the design, adding a pocket on one side and a button closure on the other, along with a full waistband to replace the traditional ties and open side vents.

I've never made anything 'proper' before, never used a pattern, so I'm happy how these turned out.

110,000 stitches later and my wife's completed her latest cross stitch. As you can see, it's the King of Diamonds, and next to start - after a small break as this one's taken a while - will be the King of Hearts.

Miss 6 put a hole in the knee of her favourite sweat pants so I darned the hole this morning. The mend was pretty fast so I decided to use up some embroidery thread leftover from other projects to make it a bit prettier. An hour or two’s work was worth it for a very happy small daughter. #mending #embroidery #RepairReuseRepurpose #stitchcraft

Was trying out new writing styles and decided to make book marks of the elements with bottle patterns I was ready to do something with. I’m quite happy how they turned out even with a few “happy accidents”. #stitchcraft #crossstitch #witches

OMG it seems that I have actually completed one of my many ongoing craft projects! Don’t ask how long I’ve been doing it for, I won’t be taking questions on that topic at this time 😉. Still needs a press and to find (or make) a cushion to go inside it, but it’s lovely to have the stitching finished. #CrossStitch #Embroidery #Stitchcraft

And finally, because we've used coloured threads for the sashiko on the front...

...and have stitched through the batting and backing...

we get a series of beautiful patterns on the rear of the quilt as well.

This was a lovely collaborative project. I hope to do more quilting soon.

The sashiko stitching adds so much beautiful detail.

It draws the eye to new patterns within the whole, and links sections through (here it comes...) a common thread.
