Le point que Sharon nous propose d'étudier cette semaine est le point de noeud. Ce point est appelé "french knot" en anglais, mais je voudrais bien savoir ce que ce noeud a de français. C'est juste ... un noeud.
The point that Sharon proposed to study this week is the french knot, but I would like to know why this knot is said French. It's just ... a knot.
Je n'aime pas beaucoup ce point, mais j'ai tout de même fait une petite broderie :
I do not like this stitch, but I still did a little embroidery:
Et quand je dis petite, c'est vraiment petite : cette semaine je me suis lancée dans une miniature, brodée en un fil sur un ruban de satin.
And when I say little, it is really little : this week I have tried to do a miniature embroidery whith one thread on a satin ribbon.
Au début, je pensais que ça irait vite à broder, vu le format, mais en fait, c'est plutôt le contraire. Le dessin est très inspiré de celui la revue "Broderie d'Art" de ce trimestre. C'est un modèle de Brigitte Dadaux.
At first I thought it would go faster, due to the format, but in fact, it was quite long. The design is very inspired by one of the magazine "Broderie d'Art" this quarter. It is a model of Brigitte Dadaux.
Pauline a brodé aussi quelques points de noeud :
Pauline has also embroidered some french knots :
well whether you like the stitch or not, you still managed to be brilliantly creative with it~!!!~
RépondreSupprimergood for Pauline for giving this one a try too. how does she feel about the french knot?
the french knot isn't my favorite stitch either. i generally feel like the colonial knot is much easier to control. however, i did get better at it as i practiced and might not be quite as reluctant to use it in the future . . .

As always you I am in awe of what you have done. The stitches are so TINY. The hollyhocks make me think of summer. It is so good of you to work with your daughter and I am looking farward to seeing Pauline's progress.
RépondreSupprimerI also wonder why this week's stitch is called FRENCH knot. Maybe it was most popular in France when this kind of embroidery first came from China to Europe?
Ton travail de cette semaine est vraiment impressionnant. Quelle minutie, ces points si petits... Comment comptes- tu l'utiliser? Et bravo à Pauline, son poisson est tout mignon.
RépondreSupprimerВау! Какая замечательная миниатюра! Очень красиво получилось! И Pauline от мамы не отстает, замечательно вышивает.
RépondreSupprimerIsabelle, maybe you don't love this stitch (I also don't know why it's French), but your little picture is very beautiful!!

Altghough you don't like the french knot your embroidery is very beautiful. Fine to see Paulines french knots, they are really very lovely!
RépondreSupprimerI live and work part of the year on an island in the Indian Ocean, that's why the sea inspires me!
Thank you for your comments on my little works! I really appreciate your words!
Happy Stitching
Pauline maîtrise bien le point qui paraît-il n'est pas si simple ! BRAVO MADEMOISELLE !
RépondreSupprimerTa miniature est "géante" ;o)
