This collection of articles from recent issues of
Fine Woodworking magazine, the world's leading woodworking magazine,
delivers expert advice and information on different types of joinery,
tool use, and techniques.
About the Author Fine Woodworking
was launched in 1975 in response to the lack of quality information on
the craft. With a circulation of 287,000, it is now the premiere source
of how-to information for woodworkers of all skill levels that are
seriously interested in woodworking techniques, tools, projects,
finishing and design inspiration.
French term meaning applying one piece of fabric to another. A cut
piece of material stitched to another adding dimension, texture and
reducing stitch count.
Backer/Stabilizer
Materials, generally non-woven textiles,
which are placed inside or under the item to be embroidered. The
backing provides support and stability to the garment which will allow
better results to the finished embroidered product. Backings come
primarily in two types: cutaway and tear-away. With cutaway, the excess
backing is cut with a pair of scissors. With tear-away, the excess is
simply torn away after the item is embroidered. Additional types which
are dissolved either by water or heat also exist. For all of these the
terms backing and stabilizer are often used interchangeably.
Bobbin
A bobbin
is a small spool of threads inside of the rotary hook housing. The
bobbin thread actually forms the stitches on the underside of the
garment. The bobbin on an embroidery machine works in the same manner and for the same purpose as on a standard sewing machine.
Digitize
The computerized technique of turning a design image into an
embroidery program. Special software is used to create plotting
commands for the embroidery machine. The commands are transferred to the machines logic head by a designated embroidery "language."
Fill Stitch
Fill stitches are a series of running stitches sewn closely together to form broad areas of embroidery with varying patterns and stitch directions.
Hoop
A clamping device used to hold the backer and fabric in place in the machine.
Running Stitch
A running stitch is one line of stitches which goes from point A to
point B. A running stitch is often used for fine details, outlining,
and underlay.
Satin Stitch
Also known as the zig-zag stitch by which a line, border or edge is
produced by thread being alternately stitched to either side of a
baseline. Satin stitches are generally limited to a maximum of 1/2" in
stitch length before some alternate technique such as split stitching
or fill stitching must be used.
Underlay
A stabilizing pattern of embroidery which, if used, precedes the
main body of satin or fill stitching. It consists of one or a
combination of running stitches for centering, edging, paralleling or
zigzagging the design area..
