Let's learn historical blackwork embroidery (and make a cute modern bag)

I am notorious for learning historical techniques on the fly, so I'm breaking the cycle and properly learning and practicing Renaissance blackwork embroidery BEFORE incorporating it into a fiddly historical project. Plus I get a cute bag out of the deal. Win/win.

I’m totally here for more technique videos. 🖤

I’m just amazed at your skills. I do hope I’ll be as talented as you when it comes to garment making. Love your channel!

[monstersmomma]

Wow! I absolutely love this! Might experiment in gold threads for my wedding dress bodice!

[heathermade]

Love the bag! Love small scale technique videos <3 May I request smocking?

Hi! Thank you for sharing this with us. I just found your channel and I’m glad I did! I’d love to see more projects like this that teach us new techniques. New sub here. Now I’m off to binge watch your other content 🥰 Sending best wishes from Down Under 💖💐🌸🌺😎🇦🇺

Thanks for sharing! I'm always interested in new techniques-so yes :)

[mkchandler]

Thank you for the interesting and beautiful blackwork video. Can you tell me who makes your embroidery clamp? I have been looking everywhere for one and your style seems a good fit. I would like one that I can flip to the back if needed, and the ones I've seen online don't have that ability.

Perfect timing, I have to do some blackwork on a shirt collar! And I love these technique videos

[patytrico]

I love it! I will try it :) I always try to do something useful of my practice pieces, so much effort has to be put to work! Hugs from Uruguay, love the channel

Yes, please make more new skills videos. I love seeing new techniques being made. It helps to appretiate the craftsmanship and puts in perspective how much time it takes for even the small details on garments...

Loved this project, please do more and have you tried red work which gives a fabulous look to any garment.

[jenniferlevine]

That is a lovely project! Makes me want to make one too! Thanks!

I think blackwork is gorgeous, I just haven't had the courage to give it a go yet as I hate using hoops. I will try to embroider some cuff bindings on my new chemise and see how it goes. More little projects please!

with some internal padding that would make a really cool case for a laptop or tablet

I love learning new embroidery techniques.

I have also been procrastinating an outfit from this time period because I want to include blackwork and haven’t learned it (I have on a cross stitch project but…) also smocking lol

[mamabear]

Omg😮😮. That is so cool beautiful and special❤. I was working on one big one, was almkst finished it, then i lost it. 😢

[partyfiesta]

Lovely project. I serge (or simply zigzag) my edges especially when it comes to Aida fabric. Don’t ask me how I got to learn this…😅
