Embroidery Time｜Do you drink breakfast tea or afternoon tea?

Come for tea today!

In fact, Xiaoshu has the habit of having a cup of coffee in the morning, a pot of tea in the afternoon, and a cup of honey water in the evening. He has to drink something all the time before he is willing. During the three-level alert period, it was a blessing in disguise to stop drinking by hand, but he couldn’t change the smell Only the aroma of coffee and tea is willing to start the habit of doing business.

It seems reasonable to have a pot of hot tea next to it while embroidering it? But it's not like this at all... When embroidering, the table is in a mess, the thread ends are floating around, the small scissors that have been buried and hard to find, and occasionally fall to the ground, you will find crazy embroidery Needle, putting a pot of tea next to it will only increase the chance of my overturning, so I am always thirsty when embroidering 🤦‍♀️

This time, I wanted to embroider a style of English afternoon tea, but I don’t know that the ideal is very plump and the reality is very skinny . The flower on the teapot is a mixture of marigold and cauliflower, and the dots next to the letters are decorated with melon seeds or birds. The feeling of feed, (there are parrots in the Xiaoshu family, and they have special feelings for seed-like objects...).

 ✨Needling area: I used some new stitches this time, part of which is to continue the previous attempts on various petal patterns, and the other part is to practice lines.
1️⃣Portuguese knotted stem embroidery – Tea word: a stitch derived from the most basic stem embroidery (outline embroidery), each stitch is wrapped twice with embroidery thread on the trunk of the previous step, showing some Thick grained lines.
2️⃣Poodle embroidery – the pattern on the bottom of the teapot: On the basis of back stitch embroidery, use the embroidery thread to create a fluffy beauty.
3️⃣ Smyrna Embroidery – Flowers on the Teapot: Fix the embroidery thread into a loose semicircle, and then arrange it in a ring to present the three-dimensional effect of stacked petals.
4️⃣Stem embroidery (outline embroidery) – the rest: the work of the stroke is handed over to the universal stem embroidery that will be used in every work.

✨A little story derived from Smyrna embroidery : Smyrna = Smyrna, which is the old name of Izmir, a city in Turkey. Turkey's long-standing handmade carpet skills are inseparable from embroidery . When weaving carpets or designing patterns for the surface of carpets, it is often necessary to use the help of Combinations and variations of various stitches. Smyrna embroidery can be arranged in a circular arrangement to express blooming flowers, or arranged in parallel to cover the fur of animals, especially after cutting the semi-circular circles and loosening the open thread ends, it can create a more delicate pattern. Wool feel.

I want to go to Turkey to play with embroidery 🤦‍♀️

Does the overall green color match feel like you want to drink sencha or green tea ? But in fact, Xiaoshu prefers to drink black tea haha 🥰

After drinking coffee and tea, what do you want to drink next time?
