Development of Philippine Embroidery

Embroidery is the ornamentation of textiles and other materials with

needlework for personal use and decoration not only at home but for offices
as well. The term embroidery is an English word derived from the old
French embroiders meaning edge and border.
Embroidery was introduced into the Orient by the Netherlanders in the
15th century. It was bought by the Spaniards into the Philippines where it

has made a wonderful growth, and work done it rivals the best work done
in Switzerland, a country noted for its exquisite embroidery.

Embroidery reached its highest development during the middle ages. The
nuns in the convents were the first to make articles with embroidery work
during their leisure time. Since then, it became so popular that women
started to enjoy it, creating designs of their own. In the beginning
embroideries were done by hand. But since the advent of technology and
the invention of the sewing machine, people are now engaged in the
machine embroidery.
Today, because of the fast growth of the industry, elegance of
designs and fineness of workmanship, Filipinos export articles with
embroidery work. Embroidery work is best achieved if correct tools and
materials are used. Tools refer to small or handy devices/instruments used
in sewing while materials or supplies are those that are consumed in
finishing a project.
Below are the tools and materials use in Embroidery its uses and
maintenance.

Tools
Gauge- use to measure short distance

Tape measure- use for measuring more than one-foot

distance or materials.

Thimbles- made from metal or plastic, protect the middle

finger and push the needle while doing your embroidery
work. This come in sizes 6 (small) to 12 (large)

Embroidery hoop/stiletto- made of wood, bone, metal or
plastic use to make eyelets in the fabric to be embroidered.
It is also use to keep the fabric stretched while embroidery
stitches are applied on the design. It is advisable to place tissue paper
over the inner hoop or twist or wrap the inner hoop with a thin material to
prevent markings on the fabric.

Embroidery scissor- is small, sharp and pointed-good for

fine work use for trimming scallops, clipping threads, and cutting large
eyelets. Protect the blade by keeping them in a sheath or
cover and get them sharpened occasionally.

Needle threader- is use for easier threading especially by

those sewers with poor eyesight.

Pounce- is fine powder used in transferring design

by pricking method.

Embroidery needle- a short pieces of steel with a fine point at one end
and a little opening or eye at the other. The kind of embroidery work to do
and the kind of thread to use are two things to be considered in choosing
your needle.

No part of this material may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form or by any means (electronic,
mechanical, photocopying, recording, or otherwise) without prior written permission from the school.
East Negros Academy, Inc. Learning Module for TLE 7 (Week 15&16) Page 6 of 12
Needles should always have a fine tip so that they can easily move in
and out of the fabric. Do not use a needle which is bent, without a point or
rusty. This will affect the regularity and neatness of work. Protect your
needles by storing them in a needle case to sharpen needles or make pins
last longer by rubbing them with an abrasive material such as sandpaper or
heavy wool.
Keep in mind that pins and needles are one of the most inexpensive
notions used. Simple care and knowing when to discard them are key. It is
recommended to discard your needle after eight hours of use; usually when
threads or fibers start breaking and you feel it pulling on your fabric instead
of gliding through it.

11. Crewell- sizes 1-10 are sharp-pointed, medium length with large eyes
for easy threading they are used for most standard embroidery stitchery.

12. Chenille- sizes 13-26 are also sharp-pointed needles but they are
thicker and longer and have larger eyes. They are that types of needles
appropriate for embroidery that is worked with heavier yarns.

13. Tapestry needle- is from sizes 13 -26. They are similar in size to
chenille but are blunt rather than sharp. This makes them best for thread-
counting embroidery and for the needle point as well.

14. Water color brush- use for transferring the design

using pricking and pouncing methods.

mechanical, photocopying, recording, or otherwise) without prior written permission from the school.

15. Pin cushion- a place for pins and needles.

16. Tracing paper- used for tracing designs.

17. Sewing box- use to keep together the embroidery

tools and materials.

18. Bag- to keep work clean and fresh, have a bag made
from washable material to hold your work when not
busy on it.

Materials
1. Fabric- sometimes referred to as cloth, are of great variety and they
differ in material, weight, weave, design, color, and finish.

No part of this material may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form or by any means (electronic,
mechanical, photocopying, recording, or otherwise) without prior written permission from the school.

Three types of Fabric

Common weave- includes most tightly woven fabrics with a relatively

smooth surface like linen, wool and cotton. They are best used for articles
with decorative stitches.

Even-weave- are intended for hardanger embroidery since the number of

threads per square inch is same for both warp and woof.

Basket weave- is commonly used by beginners and ramie linen by those

who have been used to this embroidery. It supplies guidelines for cross
stitch and smocking having an evenly spaced pattern like gingham cloth and
polka dots.

All fabrics should be prewashed before using them for quilting or

embroidery.

The filler that is used in the fabric can cause havoc if it is not removed by
washing prior to working with the fabric.

2. Thread- is available in various types. They differ in terms of texture,

fiber content, number of strands and colors. Threads are usually coded in
numbers and color names.

No part of this material may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form or by any means (electronic,
mechanical, photocopying, recording, or otherwise) without prior written permission from the school.

They can be bought in skeins, balls or spools. The color of the thread
should suit the color and texture of the design and the fabric to be
embroiders,

Proper Care of Embroidery Thread

As one of the most essential elements to the stitching process, it's
important to ensure proper and careful care of embroidery thread. Store it
properly under controlled conditions to avoid the following issues:
Thread dents—when a cone falls onto the floor, the point of impact can
“dent” the thread, resulting in a weak spot (or spots) that can ultimately
lead to problems as the thread travels toward the needle. This is a common
problem for those that store unused cones on top of their machine. Those
cones will “walk” across the machine table due to the vibration of sewing
and ultimately end up on the floor.

Discoloring and fading—Threads, especially rayon, will fade when

exposed to sunlight for extended periods of time. If your threads are stored
on a window sill or anywhere that sunlight can strike them full force, you
risk fading and discoloring.

Lint buildup—Threads that sit out, exposed to the elements of your shop’s
environment, are prone to dust and lint building up. Over time, such buildup
can sink down into the threads. When the thread travels through the upper
thread path, it takes the crud with it, dispensing it along the way onto
critical surfaces (such as tensioners) that need to remain clean and smooth.
The end result will be inconsistent upper thread tension and possible thread
breaks.

Brittleness—In addition to discoloring and fading, excessive exposure to

sunlight can dry out the thread and lead to brittleness in the fibers.
Obviously, this will weaken the thread and lead to excessive thread breaks
