Embroidery with cushion ribbons

Pillows of various sizes are often used as decor elements. Recently, for the decoration of pillows using their own hands use ribbons . To sleep on such a pillow, of course, no one will, but her presence on the armchair, sofa or sofa will fill the house with comfort and warmth.

Decoration pillows ribbons - the process is not easy, requiring assiduity and accuracy. But if you set a goal, then everything will turn out! And to get pillows, embroidered ribbons, our master class will help you.

We will need:

  1. Master class for embroidering cushion ribbons will begin with the fact that we divide both halves of pillowcases into three equal parts by vertical lines. Then on one half we will designate a rectangle, which will be the zone for embroidery. In this zone, draw a few simple flowers with five petals and a stem. Make sure that all the flowers are removed from the borders of the rectangle.
  2. Place the embroidery area in the embroidery frame and embroider the flower. First, thread the tape in the needle and pass through the center of the flower (from the wrong side). Then extend it to the end, turn and again pass through the center (from the front side). You will have a small petal.
  3. Similarly, embroider the other four petals. Then change the ribbon and proceed to the formation of the core of the flower. Insert the tape in the center from the wrong side, wrap the tape around the needle and again pass through the center. You will get such a flower.
  4. The next stage of the master class on how to decorate the pillow with ribbons is embroidery of stems. To do this, insert a needle with a green ribbon from the wrong side into the center of the stem, and then enter it near the petals, bring it out in the center and reach the end. The stem is ready.
  5. Take the tape aside and embroider the leaves as shown.
  6. Similarly, embroider the remaining flowers. It remains to sew both halves of the pillowcase, and the pillow is ready!

If this option seems to be too simple for you, try sewing a more complex pattern. To do this, you will need ribbons made of satin, organza, silk.

First, sew flowers from organza, bending the ribbon in half and picking it around the edges.

Then prepare the pillowcase by bending it as shown. The bends thus obtained will help to designate areas for embroidery.

Sew flowers from organza to a pillowcase, embroider a heart with a narrow satin ribbon, and decorate the pillow with a braid around the perimeter. You can embroider several small flowers that will complement the decor.
