New Year's embroidery for beginners: schemes and photo master-class
Embroidering is quite simple, although it is worthwhile to take beginners, of course, not for the most complex images for training. Here are some examples of New Year's embroidery of different types.
New Year's cross-stitch embroidery designs
Cross-stitch embroidery is one of the most famous,that threads, unlike, say, beads, are flat and rather soft (though the whole embroidered picture turns out to be harsh), allows to decorate with such embroidery various functional interior items - for example, covers for sofa cushions or napkins.
Looking for schemes for beginners, choose one thatby the size is not very large (the image can be nicely placed and in the center of the thing or in its corner), but the number of colors is of no importance for complexity - you will just change the thread more often. You can do it yourself in the online editor, just load the image, or draw and count the number of squares on plain paper in a box.
And you can even embroider a whole toy - on a Christmas tree or under it, for example, a soft Santa Claus in the form of a cylinder. To do this, you will need a schematic-scan, thread, needle and cotton wool - to fill the toy later.
If you do not want to embroider it entirely, you canto embroider simply one, the standard image, as much as possible stylized, on a piece of fabric with a large margin around the edges, and then connect these edges behind the embroidery, sew them together and add inside the cotton wool. In this case the toy will turn out in the form of a cone.
New Year's embroidery pattern beads
The most popular variant of embroidery with beads on the Newyear - pendants-toys. The thematic image (for example, a snowflake) on an ordinary "flat" scheme is transferred by beads to the fabric with a stock on the sides, then it is stuffed with cotton. The edges after also are sheathed, usually larger beads or beads are used for this, but this depends on the taste.
Often sewed down to such toys and simpleBeaded brushes, and with a beadwork embroidered fabric, sometimes they are decorated with Christmas balls. In this case, select an image that looks good on the convex surface, or make a correction on the diagram, taking this into account.
Beads can be used and not for a fullart embroidery, where the whole picture will be created, and as an element of decor - sew, for example, straight strips of beads as a separator between several strips of materials of different texture and color that make up a single whole (for example, festive drapery).
New Year's embroidery ribbons
Embroidery with ribbons is an old Russian tradition, and although now this kind of art is less popular, with its help you can create really magnificent things.
The principle of embroidery ribbons is different from embroiderycross or beads, but you can use ribbons for decorating a holiday with ribbons, except for small Christmas toys (the pictures are more voluminous, so a very small format will not work, although you can choose toys a little larger, for example, the same balls at least 6-8 cm in diameter, if the tree is large enough).
Strips embroider napkins, bedspreads and covers forpillows, and the choice of ribbons of different sizes allows you to give extra work to the work and achieve greater expressiveness (as if, for example, when embroidering a candle on a sprig of spruce, a thin green ribbon is chosen for the needles, and for a high candle flame - a broader red and a very narrow yellow) .
The usual choice of colors for the New Year - white,silver, green, blue and red, but do not limit your imagination. You can move away from the standard in both colors and themes, while leaving a festive atmosphere and embroidering, say, red roses in the snow.
