Just started needle painting and was having a hard time with how to blend. Unlike other videos, your explanation was so clear and down to earth I finally understood what I have to do. Thank you so much! ☺
Love it! It gives me the confidence to try. This is the first time I’ve watched your channel….I’ve subscribed and will be working my way through the rest of your videos…it’s so helpful to know what needle and how many strands..thank you!
Thank you so much for this video-it’s BRILLIANT! I have learnt more in this one video than all the videos I’ve watched over the last year and you’ve given me the confidence to try this beautiful technique! ❤
This is a very informative lesson. I have bought books, and watched soooooo many videos, i just couldn’t figure this technique out. Mine always looks very sloppy and not smooth like yours. Thank you for all the info and explaining so well that I now think I can even do curves without any trouble. . Such a beautiful job too!
This tutorial is just what I needed. I’m thread painting old cross stitch patterns I have on Ada fabric. This is so very good and I thank you for your time in teaching this. 🌟👍❤️👏
This was very informative, thank you! I am curious though, what's the distinction between this technique and long & short stitch, are they more or less the same?
Hi Cynthia - Honestly, I think that L/S stitch and needle painting are the same thing. It's been called long and short stitch for a long time, and my guess is that "needle painting" and "thread painting" are just newer names for it. That's a great question!
Question: When a dark color needs to be above a lighter color (for example, I am embroidering some irises), should I lay down the lighter color first and then embroider the darker color over it to have a smooth blending between the light and the dark? I have been experimenting with this and it seems that laying down the light color and then the dark works better (The dark color is at the top of the motif and the light color is underneath.). Thank you for your help!
