Product Information

The BERNINA L 890 Combo machine is an airthreading serger that allows you to easily and quickly thread the machine. Cross stitch is the best-known type of colour embroidery and is one of the oldest existing embroidery techniques. Personal taste, intended use and, last but not least, your patiences usually determine whether you select a closely woven, fine fabric or a coarse one. For over a decade we have worked with the same mills, building an extensive collection of customised designs and an unrivalled Colour Library.

Smartly tailored in soft linen fabric, these versatile dinner napkins will elevate any meal for your guests. All these fabrics have in common the fact that the number of squares is clearly defined and that counting single threads is not necessary. Usually, diy cloth napkins are simple squares, and they come in a number of standard sizes: most popular are 16", 18", 20", or even 22" square. Another, a better (still emergency-style) solution is to just hem them quickly with a serger, which could work better, even if not ideal.

Select a single thread at the point where you made your mark in the previous step and pull it out with your tweezers.

So this is what we'll do here: fold back and press ⅜" (1cm) of the edge of your diy napkin once and then again ⅜". There are, of course, other variations of the hem-stitch, but this is the most common and the easiest to master. Now, moving from right to left (left to right if you’re left-handed) and with the wrong side of the fabric facing upward, insert the needle under a few of the vertical threads. If you enjoyed this short hemstitched napkin tutorial, pick up the needle and try to create your own beautiful and decorative linen napkins. I did some test sewing and found decreasing the left needle tension to 1 improved my stitch (notice the change shows the number in yellow).

For example, some cross stitches are formed on both the right and wrong fabric side, or there are cross stitches on the right side and box stitches on the wrong side. The best thing about this part of the project is that you can hem-stitch and decorate at the same time.

Corded Stitch Napkins - Bespoke Bedlinen by Gilly Nicolson

You can hand-stitch around them, and such diy hand-stitched fabric napkins can turn out gorgeous - but it's not a quick way to sew them, so I'll leave that for some other time. Now, you can literally take the machine out of the box and start serging no matter your experience level! Of course, we want to help in every way possible along this new exciting journey and since I do know how to sew that is where I can best help her keep some of the cost down. And it gets even better: if you make double-sided napkins, you don't need to miter corners to make them look good. But be sure to drawstrings from your mark back toward the center so as not to reduce the size of the hem.The rule of thumb is: for a stitch gauge of 12 to 16 per inch, use 2 strands of floss, for 10 or 11 per inch use 3 or 4 strands. These will dissolve during the first wash but if you want them gone before dinner, dab with water or use tweezers to remove. To make it quicker, I just place the fat quarters with the right sides together and cut once through both layers. In folk art world wide there are traditional cross stitch patterns that differ not just in shape and colour but also in technique.
