Discover in this tutorial video how to use the punch needle . This relief embroidery technique is carried out using this tool also called a puncher needle or magic needle. The principle is simple: we sew on the back of a canvas or fabric and small loop stitches are formed on the right side. By working on the spot of your work, you get a classic point, that is to say flat. Have fun alternating your work to create contrast and volume in your creation.
Learn in this tutorial how to make a pretty model in ultra trendy punch needle to put a "green" touch in your interior! Before you start, you can download the foliage diagram . We used a punch needle delivered with 3 different needle sizes allowing different thicknesses of wool to be used. Embroider as quickly as if you were drawing with the magic needle. Here we go, get started!
Loosen the screw on the punch needle handle. Place the needle in the handle of the punch needle and screw it back in (ideally with a pair of flat pliers as it needs to be tight).
Fold the copper wire supplied with the kit in 2 and pass the chosen wool through it.
Pass the copper wire folded in 2 inside the handle of the punch needle, then through the tube of the needle and finally through the hole at the end of the needle
Insert your burlap, tightly stretched, into an embroidery drum.
Hold your needle like a pen and "puncture". Prick the needle until the handle makes contact with the fabric and gently pull it out. Cross the embroidery fabric with the needle, notch facing the direction you want to go.
Work your work right side up, facing you
Gently pull upwards, staying flush with the fabric so as not to unravel the loop formed on the reverse side.
Move it without lifting it and push it in again to form the second stitch.
Repeat as many times as necessary, following your pattern and changing wool colors as needed.
To change the wool, cut off the remaining wool and then thread the wool onto a needle and pull the piece of wool through the fabric to hide it.
Once your project is complete, you can secure your work by spraying hairspray or using an iron-on fabric.
