Your tutorials are always so clear. Can you kindly tell me what threads I need to buy for hand embroidery in general? I'm excited about starting to practise what I'm learning from you. Also, can I use polyester and nylon thread for embroidery as well? Thanks in anticipation of your reply.

I feel happy for some reason ^___^ Maybe because in this hectic world a little bit of peace is probably what we desperately need. Although I wouldn't mind some bird chirping on the background either ^.^ Thank you for your beautiful videos! I have never seen this technique actually before I stumbled on a weird looking needle on a shopping app. Thanks to that I know of this beautiful possibility of crafts. I think I want to try it some time in the future. I'm a total beginner in crafts and just finished my first ever felted mittens, yay! I have been gathering pictures of inspiring and beautiful and maybe even doable (with LOTS of learning) clothes with details, like knitwear decorated with all sorts of wonderful decorations. I have subscribed to your channel not to lose it, since I am aspiring to learn from you. Thank you!

What should you do if you make a mistake beading and you need to go back a few stitches? Can you just pull the end string like with crochet and the bead will come out? I am becoming increasingly interested in this and your channel is so helpful!

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Yes exactly just pull the string and the stitches come undone, then just carry on stitching. Thanks for your comment, glad my videos are helpful😊💕

[@woezzelboefje]

Thank you so much for these videos! I just started and I am having trouble with my thread breaking. What am I doing wrong? I am using Fil au Chinois thread, as recommended. And it's been happening after about every 20 beads. Should I cast off more often? How many beads can I place before you recommend I cast off again, just to secure it and be safe? Thank you so much!!

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

thank you!!🥰 its hard to determine what you’re doing wrong without me seeing you embroider, but usually people have not framed up their fabric tightly enough, and maybe you could be holding it wrong or have too much tension. There is no need to cast off, you can continue to stitch hundreds of beads continuously without the thread breaking.

[@babumr2343]

Very good

[@MrsKervang]

What kind of thread should we use? Embroidery kind?

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Any thread will do, in the video im using a viscose thread.

[@ItsMeStephanie914]

You're a great teacher! Thank you for sharing this with us. I do have a question, however, and I'd appreciate it if you can share your guidance with me! Recently I was inspired to try to create a beaded dress! Clio Peppiat has some excellent pieces but I don't have the extra money to afford one of her dresses. I was wondering how you think I should bead the body of the dress once the decorations have all been completed. The background beads on Clio's dresses seem to face in every direction with no distinct pattern. It gives off a really cool scattered look when the beads aren't all lined up or facing one way. What stitch pattern should I use to imitate this? A zig zag?

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Thank you Stephanie! I really love the clio peppiat dresses too, if I had the time to focus on youtube full-time i would make a tutorial for it. Hopefully someday in the future. So to answer your question, you need to do a vermicelli stitch. Thats what they have done for the background beads. It’s basically just a continuous squiggly line, so its gives off a natural scattering of beads. Type in to Pinterest “vermicelli tambour “ and you will get the idea. Ill try and do a KZbin short for you. Just draw the squiggly line freehand you dont need it to be perfect. Hope that helps, wish you all the best with your project. Oh if you have tiktok, go to my page and go to my reposts. There is a girl on TikTok that did a fully beaded dress from watching my tutorials. Her videos will definitely help and inspire you for your project.😊💕

[@anietaiter]

Your videos are terrific! I agree with a comment: thank you for making it so clear! This maybe a dumb question: does it matter if one twists threat to the left or right on the needle? I’ve see tutorials that says counter clockwise, and ones that say clockwise and also some that say it goes one or the other depending on the direction of the stitch. Your thoughts?

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Thank you so much! Id tried really hard to make it as clear as possible but still couldn’t add every detail into the videos. Its a great question! So it depends on which direction you’re stitching. When you come up with your hook from the fabric and the loop of thread is twisted, it means you should have wrapped the thread around your hook the other way. Just unhook the loop and then hook it back on so its not twisted and then continue stitching with correct wrapping direction. But even if you wrap it wrong you will still be able to stitch, it just wont be as neat. Hope that makes sense 💕

[@anietaiter]

That helps!!! I found that was working but I’m so new to this and it is a hard start, but fun!!!! Thanks again.@@OlsjonaEmbroidery

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

It is quite difficult in the beginning especially if you’re learning on your own, but trust me with more practice you will get the hang of it and pick up speed. Wish you all the best with it!😊💕

[@anietaiter]

@@OlsjonaEmbroidery thank you!

[@lissyemmy]

Is there any practical or design reason why someone would choose to bead from the top vs. the bottom, or vice versa? Or is it simply a matter of personal preference?

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

The bottom technique it faster as you dont have to constantly load the beads on you hook, so its great for continuous stitches. But the top technique is great if you want use different beads and do small intricate beading details

[@chubbyunicorn4814]

Can you give examples of when you would use one technique over the other, please? (Top vs. Bottom)

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

In this video it shows me using bottom and top techniques. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZjaaoeChZqSoJo

[@davinci44star]

Are there needles that will sew on #8 small beads?? I love this idea + will ck it out. My beading was taking to long to do, this may be the answer for me!

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Yes a size 70 hook will fit most beads, but for very small seed beads i would thread them up and use the bottom technique as shown in the video

[@fatimamohammed7623]

Thank you very much for a beautiful Vedio and handwork ❤❤❤ but could you please explain which type of fabric we can use for embroidery?

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Thank you!🥰 you can use any fabric for tambour embroidery, but i would not recommend stretchy fabrics

[@قناةرضاأمي]

❤

[@lifewithshahi]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@thennowshow4598]

Very helpful, I'm still learning tambour and your instructions are clear. When beading from the bottom, what happens when the beads run out before the work is finished? Can I add more at that point?

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Thank You!! Once the beads have run out you have to finish the stitch. And then thread up more beads and start a new stitch. Try and estimate how many beads you need so you only have to thread up once.

[@comfortcrochet]

Hi nice tutorial. Please what is the name of the punch needle and where can I get it, please.

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Thank you! It is bot a punch needle, it is a Tambour Hook. Links are in the description

[@skyegeorge4607]

As someone just about to get started down this rabbit hole… is there a benefit to beading one way or the other? Are there situations where each would be more suitable or is it just a personal preference?

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Both techniques are good for different reasons. The bottom technique is faster because you dont have to keep loading your hook with beads. The thread is also less visible. For the top technique you can easily change up the beads or sequins you are using and its easier to see what your beading.

[@irmar]

How do you avoid pricking your finger (the one underneath) with the sharp point of the tambour hook every single time? And I suppose that if you put a protector you lose your dexterity with that finger?

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

I wouldn’t worry about pricking your finger. In the beginning you’ll be going very slowly and the hook is not that sharp, its much less sharp than a needle.

[@Drshwetavishal]

Can you please taught us thread embroidery

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

[@AnnieofBlueGables]

What is the advantage of beading from the backside?

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Its faster, i recommend it if you are doing continuous lines of the same beads

[@adekolatolulope2487]

What if i want to make a gown,what i will use to hold it down, like that round plastic you use to hold the net

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

You simply frame up your fabric/pattern piece using an embroidery frame. In the video im using a regular embroidery hoop frame, but for bigger projects i use a large embroidery slate frame. There are links in the description

[@laurasherrill2463]

Hi is there an advantage to beading from the bottom? Thank you

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Yes beading from the bottom is faster and more suitable when your doing continuous embroidery, like doing lots of lines of the same bead or sequin. Because your not constantly loading up the hook with beads, they are already on the thread. Whereas the top is better for when you regularly want to change beads and make smaller more intricate with varied design elements. On the top you can clearly see what your doing, change and add things more easily.

[@laurasherrill2463]

@@OlsjonaEmbroidery thank you. It’s fascinating to watch you work. I’ve never heard of this style of embroidery. Is it very old?

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Thank You! Yes its an ancient technique, think its as early as the 16th century from India. But later developed in France during the 18th century where it became known as Tambour/Luneville Embroidery. Its commonly used in couture fashion like Chanel, Dior etc..

[@karie9890]

Thank you for sharing! I've always wondered how this was done. What size beads will the needle take if you are working from the top? I did embroidery in high school, and have bead embroidered for years and years. Can you get needles for the tool that will fit the small 11/0 and 15/0 seed beads? Thanks! PS: where do you get the curved needle you're using in the bead spinner?

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Any size bead can be used if doing the bottom technique. The smallest hook size is 70 which can fit size 11/0 seed beads, but it wont fit size 15/0 beads. But there is a even smaller hook that fits 15/0 called an aari hook, but its a little e more difficult to use. The curve needle comes with the bead spinner, but you can find extras on Amazon. Plus you dont have to use a curved needle, a regular beading needle will do, just angle it so it picks up the beads.

[@estellamariegulles2483]

I tried but it snags with the thread not the fabric when I'm pulling it back up, maybe I'm using the wrong thread?

[@OlsjonaEmbroidery]

Its hard to say what you’re doing wrong without seeing. But maybe try a different thread or try it with a bigger hook size and see if thats better. Also make sure to keep the tension of the thread .

[@amberloonlee]

Embroidery thread is what you need, the very thin one that is placed into embroidery machines will do the trick! It’s sold on a spool so you get a decent amount of thread for projects.
