Bob I miss you so much! You were the best manager and teacher! I'm just bubbling over with wonderful thoughts about our days in the costume shop. You were missed so much after you left. It's so nice just to hear your voice on this video. Those were the good old days Bob, especially when we would go to your house for lunch, I'll never forget your fish chowder, my mouth is watering now! Love, love, love you Nancy!
omg! Nancy how wonderful to hear from you!!!
Thank you for the kind comments...those were exciting days in a number of ways !..... It was while at Illinois that i first learned about tambour...and I never let it go...Now it consumes my retirement. You can always reach me at my regular email rwhave2@uky.edu lots ot catch up on
Thank you Bob! I was wondering how the couture houses did this. Making my daughter's wedding dress, need to do a lot of beading, this will save me so much time!
You can do this work on any sheer fabric including tulle, lace, organza, chiffon. The fabric does not have to be silk . Once you have learned the stitch to work with accuracy you can do it on opaque fabrics as well relying on your sense of touch to feel each bead or sequin as you make the stitch
is that any tulle or special tulle?
Sir please say which needle to use size
Great video. I go to the Academy of Art University as an online student, and I wasn't able to take a class on tambour beading you taught...I was disappointed that I couldn't. I was thrilled to be able to find a DVD with instructions on tambour beading that you instructed. It was really helpful, and I can't wait to practice more! Thank you!
Hello Lovely work. I'v been doing this work since I was 16(32 years) and could'nt agree more about keeping these skills alive and kicking. I wish you all the best with your projects.
I just recently knew about tambour beading and this is the first video I've watched to see the process.
Thanks so much Mr Haven , your video and info has helped me a lot ! I was asked to make a replica pair of the Ruby Slippers from Wizard of Oz , though I purchased the tool I wound up crafting my own from a fine crochet hook , since that first pair I have made several pair of "Overlays" in the same way the originals were made. Your vid has created a side business doing what I love , including my favorite film ever made ! THANKS so much!

Not sure I have seen a tambour hook used quite that way. It would be terribly wrong in the eyes of the lades at LEsage! The Idian Aari hook is used from the front but that is a somewhat different technique altogether that has many more limitations .
Great Work Mr.Haven.
Finally a video that really goes into detail.
Yes! Many thanks for posting this video and for the narrative about this fabulous work as I have always wanted know the "trick" to it as well as see a close up of the tambour needle at work. This was great!
Wow! I know this video is 8yrs old but I find it fascinating. Thank you for sharing. 😍❤️😀
Hello Mr. Haven, I was looking for a faster method of embroidery (project with tight schedule) , and my research led me to your page. I just wanted to thank you for sharing the actual details of using the tool. Its providing an excellent jumping point!
my pleasure. Its my goal to get tambour hooks into as many hands as possible to keep the art alive!
Robert, Thank you! I'm showing your video to my fashion class. I'm a colleague at New Mexico State University.
This channel had hot me back into embellishing . ThAnkyou 💗💗💗
I am thrilled to her that! Lets make 2018 the "Year of Embellishment!"
OMG! Thank you. I just bought the tambour kit rightnow. I'm so excited to use it. I can't wait for it to arrive in the mail!!! Aaahhh! Hehe.
I went for a Tambour embroidery course recently! Thank you for your video!
Roselyn That's great but the most effective way to really learn the technique is with a hands on master class. I am in Toronto at Ryerson University doing just that this week while they are on a "Reading Break. I will have classes in KY in March then again in early May and also in September.
Mr. Haven, I live in Southern Illinois, I have been around garment making all my life-as my mother was a wonderful seamstress and I luckily followed in her footsteps; but I am thrilled to have happened across your video today! My oh my! I can almost see my mommas eyes right now! I am delighted to watch the beginning of your series. I would continue with them but it is storming now. You certainly have made my day! Thank you...
@@carlaallen4398 Well southern Illinois is as we would say in NH "Spittin distance" from my studio in Lex KY! Once this virus pandemic has subsided I will be able to resume classes in my studio. Hopefully by January! Keep an eye on my Bead Embroidery and Design Studio facebook page for details about classes and random posts of what I am going during this "hibernation". will pe posting a couple of photos of recent projects later tonight.
Robert Haven Thank you, Robert. I will definitely get over there to Facebook. I am just amazed that I haven’t heard of this being taught, let alone done, right here in the Heartland! Yep, I live in Carbondale, home of SIU. Lol. Probably if I would explore more than I do, chance could be that it’s taught there. 🤷♀️ Now that I have that thought, I am going to have to find out. I am more than satisfied with your work! I am Amazed by all of this. 🤭
This is the one I've been looking for-THANK YOU!! Now I can use my Tambour hook which has been sitting in my sewing box for a year or so (😂)- just hope I can get the hang of it!!
PRACTICE AND PATIENCE with the learning process!
Hello Bob, thank you for this video very well done and very well explained. See you again soon, Take care
@tambourbeader Thank you for you quick response. I'm really surprised, never even entered my mind to try basic sewing thread. Practiced with it last night and I'm so happy that it works great. Thank you again for this great video, I've watched it over & over again, I just love tambour beading.
Thank you Robert. Great instruction🌺
Oh Wow...I've been researching how to do this form of embroidery and found your videos very informative! I do bead work on linen and bead weaving jewelry, but wanted to try this technique with beads. Thank you...thank you... for sharing your knowledge!!
My pleasure. Its a great technique but it does take a bit of time and patience to learn it.
Jesse, Thanks you know I do teach regular embroidery classes on line for the Academy of Art Univ! Both a beginner surface embroidery and an Advanced class!
Today I just wrapped up my 5th summer teaching tambour beading in San Francisco at the AAU fashion program.
yes a single strand works nicely! Also rayon machine embroidery thread also stitches like "butter!" You can get spools at any sewing store. Some of the metal machine embroidery threads also work brilliantly as well!
This is truly a beautiful art form.
It's really easy to understand how to do!! Thank you!!
Thank you very much for sharing this! It is such a interesting technique that I have been curious about trying since I do bead weaving and some bead crochet, as well as bead embroidery with a standard beading needle. Is there a particular thread that you would recommend for this technique?
Thank You. Beautiful technique!
Amazing!thank you for your detail explain👍🏻❤️
My eyes aren’t great but I am trying to figure this out. So basically you are applying the beads to the underside of the fabric-thus the semitransparent fabric? Cool! I still think I will probably need one of those magnifying work lights.
Beautiful work!
Thank you so much!!! Beautiful technique.
Now I finally know what those tiny crochet needles were in my grandmothers sewing kit. She must have know how to do this. It's funny how it's a full circle, I've been hand embroidering for about 3 years now but I've never tried this technique, just about to get started with my own project. Thanks!
Robert Haven Learn something new every day. Thank you. I had to look up that lace and found a very informative article on it.. I love it! Have to get better at it tho.
Great work!
You hooked me on this beading. Thank you
there are worse addictions!
what type of material is you are working on?
silk organza
thanks
pun intended?
Thank you very much! this is super useful! and much faster than beading with a regular needle xD
awsome video!!! finally found it!! thank u very much!!!!
me incanta,super interesante!!!gracias
Hello! Can you explain the prick and pounce (design tranferal) method used in Lesage Maison? I curious about the materials/tools used as well... I bought your book and that it sooo interesting and beautiful! Congrats from Brazil!
This is awesome!
Is it possible to work with the needle down (under the fabric) and the right side of the embroidery up? I see it in another video. Is it wrong?
Thank you for the informative video! Wow, a lot of work. :)
When you see the work what would go into a couture piece can you really wonder at the price. Its the last true form of traditional western beauty what I hope will never die
Thank you so much for this video, it was really helpful!!!
Thanks so glad it was useful to you.
Very good to know, and hopefully I'll have one of your classes. I am planning on taking the surface embroidery course online. I'm really interested in these techniques.
Maravilhoso !
actually the larger needles are for thicker threads. I use plain sewing threads to apply beads and sequins. I use cotton or silk floss when I am working the chain stitch on the surface
Haha! I have been doing hand embroidery with needle and thread and only just discovered the tambour needle and a few others. Like this one because of the hook needle. I must try it. I could go faster! Thanks for the information!! :)
Must you use silk for Tambour bead embroidery work? I am a bead weaver and would like to try this art form.
Must beads be pre strung?
thanks so much for this video, mr rob
That was very educational - thank you!
This is exciting, thank you.
Thank you so much. I just bought the needle and hoop stand and was a little but confused about the thread. Thanks again
i am in love with this work, can you tell me what's the advantage of beading with (hook), can we use simpely a needle?
good continuation.
I teach classes in my KY studio I have some coming up at the end of September then again in late April or early May . I havent set those dates yet. Go got the site listed in the video description or google Bead Embroidery And Design Studio
I always wondered how they did that. Thanks.
Zafirah the fabric is silk organza
what is the name for your embroidery tool
+Robert Haven what is the name for your embroidery tool ?
thank you.
Robert Haven I
Robert Haven not bet bat esly wark Indian tools ari Wark contract me +917046175399 My WhatsApp no i well show you hand embroidery wark
i want to say thanks alot.....i like this....
Very interesting beading technique.
Where can I get the hook? ( couldn't find it so far in Switzerland, which annoys me, because would be easier for me to "sew" them on)
I have them on my website : roberthaven.macmate.me/Beading_in_the_bluegrass/Supply_Store.html
So very nice !
Wow vraiment très beau
Omg! All the possibilities!!!! 🙀🤩
OMG thank you so much for taking the time to show in "slow motion" how to!!!!!!! I have gone to some other sites to see how they sew on the sequins and they do it so so so fast that my eye got a "twitch"...not really, but it still was fast. Regarding the hook, is that only type of hook that will work in making these type of beading? Well again thank you for showing, I will keep you site in my file so i can reference when I need you.
Ooooooh....This is brilliant!! I have always wondered how the sequins were sewn on...I see it is a painstaking process and a labor of love...I have a richer appreciation for beaded and sequinned apparel. Who was the mastermind behind this ingenious technique?? 💚💚💚
Kathleen gad to know that you appreciate the hand artistry that goes into this dying art form. There is very little written about the history of the technique and what few sources are out there seem to indicate that about 1865 Luis Ferry-Bonnechault adapted a lace making technique that has become known as Lunneville embroidery or tambour beading. My next book will be a brief history of the technique and its place in the haute couture industry.
+Robert Haven
Oh, superb!! Thank you for your beautiful response...I have likened you to a rare jewel in a treasure chest. You have inspired me to want to learn how to master this intriguing technique.
Lol! Not sure about the "Jewel in the Treasure Chest!"...
some stones have some pretty rough edges! But thank you for the kind sentiment!
A great man work
I always thought this was done in India or some place like that. I truly didn’t know how or anything about it. This is absolutely awesome and I would love to learn more and do just one project at least.
Carla there is a version of the technique used in India where the sequins and beads are applied to the surface with a hook. The hook they use is not nearly as refined as the Tambour hook that is used in PAris on the couture garments . Watch for classes in your area as it is most successfully learned under the watchull eye of an experienced teacher. Trust me you wont stop at one project as there are so many ways to use the basic tambour stitch.
Hi Mr.Heaven, I have some problems:
1) my thread (I tried polyester and embroidery thread ) make friction with itself, even if I apply very little pressure.
2) The hook catch the threads of the fabric even if i apply more pressure backwards ( is it possible that the hook is too small?)
3) when i catch the thread with the hook sometimes the thread gets unravel and the hook catch just one little thread.
Use dual duty sewing machine thread . Make sure the front of the hook is perfectly aligned under the set screw. When you turn the hook before you wrap the thread make sure it is EXACTLY 180 degrees from where you started. When you lift it up through the fabric if the front of the hook is not PERECTLY in line with the stitch you just made it will catch on the thread and fabric. Every movement has to be perfectly precise every time or the stitch wont work
in India they have the beads on top, and the threath under.
they call this aari.
5nicole4 ...and tambour is really just the French name for aari work. This technique came from India, China and Persia, not the other way around 😊.
I feel aari is a lot more efficient. That one piece that the person posting said that took 100s of hours wouldn’t have taken that long with aari techniques
missartist123 150 of class time to learn all the techniques. Doesn’t take that long to make
@@missartist123 Not necessarily - with aari, the beads are loaded onto the hook, so you have to add more as you go (you can only load up as many beads as fits on the hook).
With tambour, they're loaded onto the thread, so you can keep going for much longer without stopping (you can load up as many beads as fits on the thread - hundreds, even.)
I've always wondered how... Now I know. Thank you!
thanks bob that was interesting information :)
Exquisite! Bon!
Can you suggest a good American (or international if need be trying to avoid extra shipping charges here) for tambour supply? thanks for this great demo
Amy Szemkus there is a shop called Embroidery Material that carries the tambour(aari) supplies
Please let me know when and where in California the classes are had. I live in LA and would love to attend.
I actually have a beginner class starting tomorrow but will have another round in April. The dates havent been set yet. Keep checking my web site listed in the description above or search for Bead Embroidery and Design Studio.
where can I find that tool here in USA? Is a very nice to work with
+Julio Meza From Mr. Robert website or search e-bay or similar for Tambour hook
Just got mine through the post. Happy Beading
@tambourbeader thanks for the quick response..learning some of the other beading techniques and this one looked to be easier since i am experienced at crocheting but didnt want to make a fabric mistake and ruin the experience
Debra
The beds are purchased on threads in hanks, 10-12 strands to the hank. The thread they come on ar etied to a spool of thread and then the beads transferred on to the spool of thread From here they are ready to be applied to the fabric.
ok esta hermoso lo que hace ademas que lo explica claramente y el video es muy bueno
this is an excellent video, thanks very much for posting.
regards

@tambourbeader Thank you! It's very addictive. Just ordered a pair of 49" frames...
thank you for this! I will be ordering my tambour needle soon - I'm trying to make a skirt covered with 3/4" circle sequins. Should I embroider the sequins to a lighter fabric and sew the finished product onto the skirt material, or can I just sew the sequins on the skirt material - it is a dark color, stretch fabric. Thanks again!
@tambourbeader Thank you very much, and wich fabrics do you use? because I use always organza but I don't know if you can use another fabric instead of organza
Thank you so much for this video. I've wanted to learn this technique for years! I've been practicing for almost a month now, it took me 9 days to finally get it, and now I'm really enjoying it. My goal is to make a purse with this technique and my only problem is finding the right thread to use. I've tried beading thread like nymo but it splits to easily. Could you please tell me what type of thread is the best to use for different materials. Thanks again so much for your great video.
Wow. another embroidery technique that I didn't know existed.
muchas gracias. Déjame saber si usted tiene alguna quesitons.
God bless you!
By the way im curious would this work if you want to apply fringes or tassel in your dress or some ostrich feather frills
You can apply almonst anything with this technique but it would have to be done while the pattern piece was still on the frame. I had a student once who added tiny feather tips to a beaded design on a man's necktie.
Please can you tell me from where to buy this incredible hook for the embroidery please because I don't know where to find it I've been trying to find one can you help me please
yes it can be worked quite nicely on tulle or lace. For these fabrics you do not need to stretch the fabric as tight as with organza since you will be using the holes already there!
Hi! Great video, can i use regular embroidery floss with this?
Fantastic 👌👌👌👌👌
I remember that this type of embroidery was very popular during the Edwardian era of England and France. However it was also the time when the HMS Titanic sailed in April 1912. Just a bit of historical reference to the time period.
I have a question, my organza is broken, holes are made because the needle is hooked, what will I be doing wrong?. Thanks from Argentina.
indeed and it really isn't as hard to learn an one might think or as most folks think it is!
Hello, can we do this type of embroidery using a normal crochet ( like the one used in making crochet headbands for example)? Thank you! :)
Would it be possible to go back through the sequins to do another row with the other sequins?
Thank you for your answering, so appreciate it. What do you mean need a pressure? My frame is like you video and I do your instructions exactly like yours.
simply push against the back of the hook( that is the side opposite to the set screw) and hold that pressure as you lift the hook through the fabric.
and which ones (brands) are the best/recommended...?
