Comments on: Pattern Darning – A beginner’s Guide https://sewguide.com Fabric to Clothes : Sewing Tips & Fashion Designing Tutorials Mon, 08 Apr 2024 12:07:21 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9 By: Ann https://sewguide.com/pattern-darning/comment-page-1/#comment-29701 Fri, 14 Feb 2020 03:39:55 +0000 https://sewguide.com/?page_id=14972#comment-29701 There is a book out on Norwegian pattern darning, entitled SMOYG: PATTERN DARNING FROM NORWAY. In it, there are instructions and beautiful patterns. The Croatians – particularly along the Adriatic Sea, in and near Dubrovnik – do this same exact embroidery. They have done so for probably at least 100 years, if not more. I know because several members of my extended family, who come from that area, do this embroidery: they just call it Croatian embroidery. Do a Pinterest search on “Croatian embroidery”, and you will find many pieces that have patterns very close to many that are in the abovementioned book. I was thrilled to find this book because none of my family members who do this beautiful and exacting work have received any new patterns from “the old country” recently. Now I can design some pieces myself, based in part on my relatives’ designs and partly on SMOYG designs. Thank you!
