THE BASIC IMPORTANT POINTS ( THEORY CLASS)

SIX IMPORTANT STEPS.OR THE BASICS.

always remember the following points before starting with needle!
1) there are 2 parts. one is outline or skeleton second is the FILLING
2) OUTLINE always starts from the LEFTand goes toRIGHT .RUNS CLOKCWISE
3) FILLING always starts from left on the outline running ANTICLICKWISE.
4) keep counting ' UP... DOWN.. in mind at every intersection of the thread.
5) in outline count is up, down ,up(needle passes U,D,U)
6) in filling the count is down, up, down.( needle passes D,U,D)

outline lesson 3,

In This lesson we are doing 3 diamond motif i.e. 3 squares joined together.

points to remember:http://kutchworkhelpbyvidya.blogspot.com/search/label/THE%20BASIC%20POINTS(Basic Points)

STEP 1:The 1st picture is bit blurry.. but hold the hoop keeping single diamond on top and 2 squares at the bottom and start from left side of the top square.

STEP 2
after the straight line at the top square.. come to the rightmost square in the bottom 2 squares. and after the prick pass the needle under the thread.


STEP 3:prick at the corner of the rightmost SQ. .. n pass the needle under the thread .

STEP 4: last prick to the right SQ.. n pass needle under ... going directly to the leftmost SQ on the bottom.

STEP 5: prick on left side top side of the SQ pass needle under.. going down.

STEP 6:Prick at the corner.. pass needle under

STEP 7& 8: last prick at the corner of the right SQ .. pass needle under..over the next thread intersection and under at the starting point to finish.

kutchwork filling lesson 2

we are doing 5 diamond motif

points to remember:

Filling basics(refer to 6 basic points in outline lesson 1)

STEP 1&2 start from left, count in filling is (D,U,D) so pic 1 pass orange outline,pic2work on the outline.

STEP3&4 pass under orange turn and pass in center diamond

STEP5 &6 from center to top,fill the top diamond working on outline in anticlokwise way

STEP 7&8

under orange

over green

STEP 9 &10 in pic 10... needle goes,counting D,U,D,U and enters center diamond.

STEP 11&12 in the same way work the Right diamond and enter center diamond to go to Lower diamond

STEP 13&14 after working Lower diamond,pass the center diamond counting D,U,D,U & enter Left one

STEP 15&16 Last 2 steps before finishing

BACKSIDE VIEW

outline lesson 2

we are doing 5 diamond motif.

points to remember: the basic 6 steps

STEP 1:

STEP 2:OUTLINE GOES FROM LEFT ,CLOCKWISE.

STEP3

STEP4:

STEP 5 &6: pic 5 .. pass the needle.Remember outline basic U,D,U.

step 7 &8

step 9 & 10 pic 10 pass under (U,D,U)

STEP 11 & 12

STEP 13

STEP14&15 pic 14.. pass under (U,D,U)

STEP 16 pass under to finish.

kutchwork filling lesson no 2

this is continuation of lesson 1 outline.

you learn filling of a single diamond.

Two important points to remember,

1 filling always starts from left on the outline running anticlockwise.

2 in filling the count is down,up,down(needle passes down ,up,down at intersection of threads).

one point to cross check is.............

outline never touches fabric except at the beginning and end points. It is worked on the outline or skeleton .or else ... your outline work has gone somewhere.

STEP 1 & 2:

start from left as in pic..1

first count in filling is D,U,D... so needle is passed under the first intersection.

step 3: down i.sec 1, up i.sec. 2 and work in the outline to turn.

the first line... u see 3 intersection of threads... and might go under the 3rd i.sec...

but wait... ..... just follow the step in picture 5 . work on the outline .

STEP 6 & 7:needle under the 1st intersection and work on outline to turn

STEP 8 & 9:

pic 8 u see 4 intersections... count D,U,D,U.

pic 9 work on out line to turn.

Step 10: end at the starting point...remember...it did not touch the fabric :-)
