Beginners Brazilian Embroidery
Instruction Designs or Kits
These 12 Beginners
Brazilian Embroidery Instruction kits include printed, ecru, poly/cotton fabric,
called "Trigger" or "Blazer Poplin", in which the
designs have been printed with water soluble ink. The intended finished size is
6" x 6". Each kit also includes the EdMar threads, complete teaching
instructions, and milliners needles #3, 5, 7 or darner- depending on the weight
of the thread used.
In these Brazilian
embroidery teaching kits, we work with EdMar 100% rayon Z Twist
Thread.
Boucle` (a crinkly type of thread in kit #1),
Nova (an extra heavy weight in kit #6,
Lola (heavy weight thread in most kits),
Iris (medium weight in kits 2, 4, 5, 11), and
Glory (fine weight in all kits).
It is important for
beginners to Brazilian Embroidery to use the kits in the right sequence as
building blocks. Some of the basics are not repeated in the other kits.
All JDR teaching kits are featured in the book "JDR Brazilian Embroidery
Book 1" by Ria Ferrell, if you need a refresher. The book is NOT
necessary if the proper sequence is followed and no steps are
missed.
Kits with new
stitches are: #1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 11, and 12. Kits #3, 7, 9, and 10
reinforce, expand and change the layout of the stitches already learned.
Additional
embroidery prints may be purchased as "Design with Directions"
in ecru or white. These do not include the thread or the
needles. These are not in a "teaching format" but as
"directions". The corresponding "Design" numbers are
listed below the kit number.
The following is a
listing of the Brazilian Embroidery Beginners Teaching Kits.
The Teaching
Kits are available in Ecru and White
