The handle of the Embroidery Stitching Tool accepts three different sizes of needles to accommodate different sizes of fibers and even has a guide to show us the direction of the needle for successive stitches.Įmbroidery Stitching Tool Needle Threader – The Embroidery Stitching Tool Needle Threader enables us to pull our thread, floss or ribbon from the entry point on the top of the handle all the way to the eye of the needle. As the needle is punched through the fabric and retracted it leaves a loop on the opposite side of the fabric. Our selected embroidery fiber flows through the handle and down through the needle exiting through the eye at the point. The Embroidery Stitching Tool and its accessories enable us to apply our desired fiber to any selected fabric easily and precisely.Įmbroidery Stitching Tool – The punch embroidery technique requires a special needle that is thin, hollow and attached to a comfortable handle for easy manipulation. Hand embroidery with a punch needle is a fiber art technique that involves looping yarn, floss or ribbon in the format of a pattern through fabric. Embroidery Stitching Tool enables our precise placement of fibers and is the very best way to ensure that our creative experience is all we want it to be. Otherwise it becomes creative confusion and no one wants that. It’s essential, however, that all of these hand applied stitches be precisely where we want them. We can use either side for our design or mix them up. Since it’s a tufting technique we get both a “flat” side and a “loopy” side. We can mix and match different colors, fibers, weights and stitch heights to create textures and designs that fulfill our creative vision. But if we do use one, there is an endless number of ways we can switch it up and make it ours. The result is nothing short of stunning textile art. Punch needle embroidery is a hand application process that uses a hollow needle to create loops of thread, yarn, floss or even ribbon on fabric giving us a textured pile surface that resembles a miniature hooked rug.
While traditional machine embroidery has its obvious applications, lately more and more of us have had our fiber-creative senses re-attuned to the amazing textures created with punch needle embroidery. So what is this thing called punch embroidery? It’s actually one of those “mature” artforms that is pretty much old school, something our grandmothers may have loved.
