Private Tuition: Tambour Beading

Tambour Beading is a professional hand bead embroidery technique that is performed with a fine hook (a shortened French Cornelli needle) in a holder and this technique is used to embellish couture garments for the fashion industry in Paris. The Tambour hook is used to embroider chain stitches and attach beads onto fabric that is stretched as tight as a drum over a square embroidery frame. Beads are strung onto a working spool of thread and the beading is worked from the wrong side of the fabric. Beads are moved up the thread with one hand and then stitched on in a crochet motion making a chain stitch after each bead. You will learn the basics: how to prepare your fabric on the frame, hook turning directions and you will also be introduced to the chain stitch using polyester & metallic thread. You will also learn to attach Bugle beads onto fabric. This class is a techniques-based classes. Fabric Colour Choices include: Ivory This project is a sampler only.
