Broderede smykker:

Det kan være Hedebo øreringe, eller en broche, broderede halskæde vedhæng eller armbånd. Mulighederne er mange, så det er nok valget, der bliver den største udfordring.

Broderi der stikker ud

På dette kursus skal vi lave noget af det broderi der stikker ud af stoffet. Vi skal brodere forskellige slags picoter (som på billedet), drizzlesting der er en opslået lang "stilk" der rager ud og er anvendelig til alt muligt fint. Flossede tyrkiske sting der egner sig til græs, kvastblomster eller andet vamset broderi og mange andre ud-af-stoffet-sting. Kort sagt så er det et kursus i at få mere 3D effekt i broderiet og vi holder os heller ikke tilbage for at bruge snyde tricks som tynd ståltråd og lignende for at få højde og formelighed i sagerne.

Pris: 350,- incl. The, kaffe, vand og kursuspapirer

Medbring gerne broderinåle, broderigarn, en lille saks, og fast stof

4 timer

Lige på kanten med broderi

På dette kursus gennemgår vi nogen af de fantastiske broderede kanter der har små tunger og buer og takker. Man skal ikke underkende en smuk afsluttende kant på f.eks. et ærme, en serviet, en taskeflap, en BH, så derfor er det godt at lære disse små herligheder at kende.

Pris: 365,- incl. te, kaffe og kursuspapirer

Navneskilte

Er I en samling godtfolk der vil have godt af at have navneskilte på, er dette lige kurset for jer. Vi skal nemlig brodere fine navneskilte med let overkommelige sting. Det behøver bestemt ikke være raketvidenskab at brodere et fint navneskilt og man vil helt sikkert gemme det i mange år, når det først er lavet. Jeg gennemgår forskellige anvendelige frie broderisting og viser nogen forslag på navneskilte og så slipper vi hyggen fri med nål og tråd.

Pris: 375,- incl. stof, brochenål, afstivning og filt til bagsiden, kaffe og te

Medbring: saks og broderinåle med spids, broderigarn.

4 timer

Trådmaling-og schattérsyningskursus. Her går vi i farve nuance mode. Med kun 1 tråd i nålen "maler" vi med teknikken schattérsyning smukke flader af sting, der toner ud i fine farvespil. Stingenes retning og "rytme" gør at man kan få strukturer og faconer på det motiv man broderer frem. Det er en langsommelig disciplin, derfor er kurset over 2 dage, da det er umuligt at skynde sig med denne form for broderi.

Pris:1200,-

Medbring fine broderinåle med spids, broderigarn, sy-ring, pen og papir til noter. (Holdes kurset anden steds end i Randers, er det en god idé at medbringe en luplampe).

10 timer over 2 dage

Stumpwork kursus:

Stumpwork er 3D broderi, så på dette kursus lærer du teknikkerne til at bygge broderiet ud og forme det du vil have til at stikke ud. Dette åbner en skøn verden indenfor broderiet, der giver muligheder for at få mere struktur og liv ind i dine værker.

Bogstaver i Fransk broderi/hævet fladsyning

Vil man gerne lære at brodere fede, smukke bogstaver, der hæver sig fra stoffet, er det fransk broderi, også kaldet hævet fladsyning man skal have fat i.

På kurset lærer du at lave undersyning og skarpe kanter, hvordan du får dækstingene til at ligge fladt og jævnt, samt at tålmodighed, tid og øvelse er en vigtig faktor til denne disciplin. Men når man har knækket koden... halleluja hvor kan det så blive smukt og wow effekten vil ingen ende tage. Så kom med på kurset og bliv udfordret, din hjerne har så godt af det.

Pris: 365,- incl. te og kaffe og et stykke stof med print

Kursus i montering af broderi (Dette kursus holdes kun i Randers)

På dette kursus gennemgår vi hvordan man behandler broderierne der skal monteres, om der skal noget på bagsiden og i så fald hvad. Hvordan man laver indramninger af stof der ser proff ud og hvad stof der egner sig bedst til det. Hvordan syer man lynlåse i pudebetræk, punge og sikrer sømmerummene godt og så usynligt som muligt.

Jeg kommer også omkring lidt forskellige vlieseline produkter og andre alternativer. Samt hvordan man monterer broderiet i et hul i en æske og på et låg uden hul.

Skal der bagside på din julekalender eller andet broderi, giver jeg også min løsning på hvordan kan gøres.

Efter gennemgangen af div. monteringer, tager vi hul på de opgaver I kursister har medbragt. Jeg lover ikke det bliver færdigt, men om ikke andet, bliver I klædt på til at gøre det færdigt hjemme.

Jeg har et veludstyret systudio med de fleste farver tråd, maskiner og vlieseline produkter.

Medbring dine monteringsopgaver, stoffet du skal bruge, evt. lynlåse, æsker, beslag ect. og så ser vi på det. (husk også en lille madpakke, da vi holder 20 min. spisepause)

Kursus i perlehyacint

Med vikleteknik, uldgarn og broiderigarn, ståltråd og klude, gennemgår jeg hvordan man laver disse søde perlehyacinter. Der er ikke noget broderi i dem, så man behøver ikke være en haj til broderi for at være med. Om man vil bruge den som broche, hænge den op eller stikke den i noget som dekoration, kan man lige overveje. Men de pynter i forårsmånederne, hvor man savner blomsterne.
