Choosing colors
And patterns
Cutwork is most impressive when recreated in a tonal look, usually
matching the background linen or fabric with an accent shade or
two. For our cutwork designs, we are matching our linen, as well as
adding a highlight and lowlight color for details.
Fabric
Cutwork can be a beautiful addition to any
household decor. For this technique, we wanted
to introduce an easy-to-do project with cutwork: a
table runner! To make your own table runner, you
will need an 18” x 74” piece of linen. We will finish
the hem with lace, so find a spool of decorative
trim that you like for this project as well.
Threads
Notions
Cutwork requires most of the basic notions such
as a rotary cutter, ruler and scissors, but there are
a few others that may have slipped your mind! You
will also need spray adhesive, and pins to secure
your fabric in the hoop.
