@marthacrock8180 Год назад

I've been trying to tell the ppl watching this instructor that Sarah is amazing at teaching anything they want to learn especially as beginners.

@BCxFOREVER 3 года назад

this is probably the best camera setup i have ever seen. it's evident that you know just what you are showing on the camera view. no obstructions, clear camera quality. audio is clear, this is SO good.

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery 3 года назад

Thank you so much entirepizza! We try really hard to get these things right so it's wonderful to get your feedback and know that it's appreciated

@Qinglin888 5 лет назад

When you learn from a mediocre teacher, you can only reach a subpar level yourself. When you learn from a master, you can also hope to become great. I believe that this tutorial gives us all the potential to become great at embroidery. Excellent technique, perfect explanation and very clear instruction!

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for your kind feedback Kaisasha; we spend a lot of time working on our videos so it's really appreciated. Glad you are enjoying!

You need to look at Phillipa’s Crewel Corner, then you will know a master!

Absolute truth. You have said it all. She is amazing and I suspect very patient.

@maryruthkelly5754 3 года назад

I agree! Thank you Sarah!

@ninacavanagh6352 4 года назад

Finally - found a video that shows how to fasten on and off a thread without having to turn the frame over. I've watched loads and never seen this before. Thank you Sarah. You are a genius!

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery 4 года назад

We have a whole video on the method here Nina! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-K1jFqcSRDhA.html

@bethstodieck18 3 года назад

From Beth, not Russ. I teach painting classes and, as a teacher, I want to applaud you for your videos. You are an incredible teacher. Clear, complete, slow enough to easily follow, generous with your tips and advice, expansive with the “why we do it this way” explanations and beautifully filmed. I’m returning to embroidery after decades long absence and it is a joy to watch your videos. Thank you so much! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery 3 года назад

Thank you Beth, very kind of you! I hope you enjoy finding your love of embroidery again..

@janruiz6610 3 года назад

I have a new respect for your talents. I'm trying to do long/short stitches. Oh my. Tangled threads & direction - I'd accomplish as much with my feet. Bless you for offering these videos. Its back to practice for me.

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery 3 года назад

Take it slowly Jan! Simplify it and just start with one colour and work a whole row in that colour concentrating on the edge and the stitch angle. Change colour for the second row and do the same. Small steps!

@meandme_yay6377 5 лет назад

@abbeystackhouse9562 8 лет назад

I used to be so intimidated by long and short stitch/silk shading, but your video makes it fun and not scary at all! Thanks!

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery 8 лет назад

So good to hear Abbey! Just practice on small areas until you get the hang of it; practice makes perfect! There is a video of the rest of this pansy going up online this week hopefully so that should help even more....

@susanhamilton1822 Год назад

This was very helpful with my problem of leaving visible needle holes. I now know what I was doing wrong. Thank you Sarah.

@cat999991 3 года назад

You are such a good teacher. I'm a beginner and thought I couldn't do this stitch, so I've been putting off my project. But the first petal I did looks good. Not like yours, but good for a first try.

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery 3 года назад

That's great cat999991! Just keep practicing and it will improve each time, I promise!

@margaretwalker7166 2 года назад

I have just done one petal on my project in long and short stitch for the very first time, it was not good, NOW I will go and do the rest of my flower correctly, My instructions have said to use 3 strands all look very bulky will do as you have instructed Than You.

@teregutierrez2311 8 лет назад

@danielasoibelman7555 5 лет назад

Wow! That is a very interesting technique of fanning the stitches, makes a lot of sense and the result is very polished. I am going to use it to make round forms, like grapes. Thank you very much for this input.

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery 5 лет назад

Little tip for you Daniela; try drawing lines to represent the stitches on a design first, then when you come to stitch your grapes, you will know exactly what angle to put the stitches!

@danielasoibelman7555 5 лет назад

Sarah Homfray Embroidery, thank you very much Sarah for your tip. I used to make round shapes using either only horizontal or only vertical stitches, and have to say I didn’t quite like the results I got. This technique making stitches along a radius you’ve shown allows a more natural shading.

@manthasagittarius1 4 года назад

Wouldn't that make a nice tutorial all of itself, the best stitches for curved edges and representing rounded forms?

@deepshikhasharma1172 3 года назад

Bonjour, il y a très peu de temps que je me suis lancée dans la broderie et vos vidéo me rendent bien service.En ce moment je ne peut plus rien faire suite à une intervention chirurgicale de ma main; mais dès que cela sera possible ,je mis remet.

It takes a bit of practice, but follow the method and it will come Yue!

@EmilieLeTrangere 7 лет назад

I'm so glad to have found these! You explain everything very well, and the videos are perfectly shot. It's been hard to find videos that show the project really clearly, so this is grand! I'm definitely going to be viewing more of these videos. I hope to silk shading on a flower project I have in mind (ambitious for me since I've only just been embroidering this past year, and not often enough at that.

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery 7 лет назад

Thank you so much! We work hard to make good quality videos so it's good to know they are appreciated. Have a go with the little pansy to get the hang of this technique; follow the process and most importantly keep practicing (it won't be perfect first go!)...have fun!

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery 7 лет назад

You are most welcome Prithivya.

@jacquelinewhittaker4651 Год назад

What about putting 2 different colours of mauve / purple in the needle? It also gives a natural, varying effect, without using multiple needles.

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery Год назад

It will give you a nice effect but for shading you need to be able to control where the colours go

@jessibiguenet1180 7 лет назад

@annaaccardo9988 Год назад

Hi Sara, I was wondering if you organises any retreat about hand embroidery. I'm from Roma, Buona domenica 🤗🌹

Beautiful thank you. One question. When you snip the threads with the scissors don't you need to add knots. I am a beginner and trying to learn.

@jocelyncurrie2334 5 лет назад

Thank you so much, this is everything I've been looking for!

@mariearce8021 4 года назад

This seems to be a more difficult way to do this technique, using several different needles and colors at the same time. I've seen it done much simpler and turns out nicer actually. Also using more shades of floss gives a realistic and beautiful look.

@vessyned 7 лет назад

what an amazing tutorial❤❤❤!!!!!

@carolkelly4511 4 года назад

which lapstand do you use please ? and how to hide your knots on the back ?

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery 4 года назад

I use the Verstaile Table Clamp that you can buy from our shop here Carol: www.sarahhomfray.com/myshop/prod_4538062-Versatile-table-clamp.html Check the measurements in the detailed description to make sure it will fit your table first! I don't hide my knots on the back, I use a waste knot on the front then cut it off after I have worked a few starting stitches. See my video on starting and finishing threads here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-K1jFqcSRDhA.html

@jennylopez9482 3 года назад

Me encanto el video pero falta los subtitulos como en la segunda parte please!!!!💕

@valeriemartinez9074 6 лет назад

How do you get it to go back in the hole ? That’s what I’m worried about but hopefully I can figure it out , what is the best fabric to use for this , thankyou for sharing this video I will start my first embroidery next week so I’m trying to figure out all the stitches techniques I haven’t figured out how they secure the thread in the beginning because I heard making a knot in the back is a big no no , also how many strands do you recommend to use thankyou sorry if I’m asking to much questions also I like your embroidery hoop stand or whatever it’s called

@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery 6 лет назад

Check out our video on starting and finishing threads Valerie. I've used one strand on this project but it depends on time, eyesight, effect etc. We have a kit available of this design with everything you need as well as written instructions to accompany the videos and we ship worldwide!
