  • In this video, Saskia ter Welle shows how to dress your frame for tambour embroidery. When you do tambour embroidery, you stretch the fabric as tight as a 'tambour' ( the French word for drum). How to do that and what to watch out for is
    in detail in this video.
    Saskia ter Welle learned haute couture embroidery techniques at, among others, the prestigious École Lesage in Paris, part of CHANEL. Once she was captivated by the infinite possibilities this offers for her own couture line, she decided to share her enthusiasm for this and start teaching these techniques in the Netherlands.
    She has since written two books on the subject and introduced hundreds of people to the wonderful world of beads, sequins and Swarovski stones ....

    Thank you so much for this! I've only ever seen the fabric being stitched to 2 sides but no one has shown how to use the twill tape to fix the perpendicular tension! I'm building my own frame and now I know what to do! Thank you so much!

    Thank you so much for these videos! I just started and I am having trouble with my thread breaking. What am I doing wrong? I am using Fil au Chinois thread, as recommended. And it's been happening after about every 20 beads. Should I cast off more often? How many beads can I place before you recommend I cast off again, just to secure it and be safe? Thank you so much!!

      Hi 👋! Your thread shouldn’t break at all. Which type of thread do you use? Fil Au Chinois is a brand name. You need the Fil à Gant from Fil Au Chinois 👍✨

      Hi @@SaskiaterWelleRisseeuw ! I just checked and I am using Fil à Gant, so strange! I have only just started learning tambour, so I'm probably not doing the stitch right yet. I think I sometimes might not hook the thread perfectly, and therefore pulling up only part of the thread instead of the whole thing, making me split the thread. And other ideas what I might be doing wrong?

      @@woezzelboefje most people starting with Tambour embroidery tend to hold the thread quite tense (trying to concentrate really) … this might be the reason.

    Thanks for the tutorial! Does this damage the fabric near the pins and stitching area?

    • @SaskiaterWelleRisseeuw
      @SaskiaterWelleRisseeuw  Před rokem

      If you know how to handle the materials well, it does not damage the fabric. You will see holes in the fabric, but the threads of the fabric are just pushed aside. With steam these threads bounce back to their original place/shape.

      The embroidery frame for tambour embroidery is large enough to be put on two trestles so you can sit behind it with your legs under with both hands free. The fabric is sewn to the the twill tapes on the large sides, and pinned with strips of twinkle tape to the smaller sides to get the right tension.
