ABSTRACT:
Hardanger embroidery designs, which can be performed by a sewing machine, preferably a computerized machine with digitized design embroidery patterns. The method employs a layer of fabric11and a layer of removable stabilizer12. A wingneedle stitches square eyelet patterns reminiscent of hand-sewn hardanger. Sets of concentric underlay stitch lines15bind fabric11and removable stabilizer12about cutwork sections16before removing fabric from said cutwork sections. Sets of intersecting underlay stitch lines18replace bar threads in cutwork sections. Each set of intersecting underlay stitch lines18is anchored to sets of concentric underlay stitch lines15and associated fabric11. Lace fill stitches19stitch onto removable stabilizer12in conjunction with intersecting underlay stitch lines. Lace fill stitches are anchored to either intersecting or concentric underlay stitch lines. Both concentric and underlay stitch lines are sewn in sets of at least two separate stitch lines in which each set of stitch lines are approximately parallel. The normal, cross-sectional distance across any set of underlay stitch lines is nearly as long as associated finishing stitches width. Finishing stitches20sew normal to, or otherwise cover, all sets of underlay stitch lines and associated cut fabric edges. Finishing stitch widths uniformly and sufficiently cover underlay stitch lines and fabric edges. Underlay stitch patterns22sew before and beneath hardanger motifs to locally bind fabric and removable stabilizer. Underlay stitch patterns permit scaling of hardanger motifs independent of fabric choice and emboss said hardanger motifs. Once a hardanger embroidery design is completed, removable stabilizer12is removed, leaving a hardanger embroidery design stitched to fabric.
