Punch needle art
A different kind of needlework! With the punch needle art, you can create beautiful 3D works of art - hand-knotted. And you don't even have to be an embroidery expert to do it!
To do this, you’ll need the following: embroidery hoop, fabric or linen, punch needle and yarn or wool of different thicknesses. Our Punch Needle set contains needles of different thicknesses, so that you can use different thicknesses of yarn.
Inside our flexible bamboo embroidery hoop, you can stretch your loosely woven fabric, such as our fabric cuttings or even your own pillowcase, and pierce your desired motif using the punching needle. Simply insert the strands of yarn or wool into the fabric in regular, loose loops to create a raised surface. The tension of the fabric alone holds them together. Depending on the thread you will use, whether it is about a thin embroidery thread or a thin wool thread, you will get fine or thick motifs in a 3D look. To prevent the thread from being pulled out of the fabric, it is best to fix it with glue.
Decorate your pillowcases, bags, even your own garments with your three-dimensional stitched work of art.
This ancient American tradition was originally used for knotting carpets, but today this simple embroidery technique can also be used to create wall hangings and pictures by the needle punching technique, which are also nice and cuddly thanks to their soft surface.
The recreative needle punching is the perfect way to add an enriching dimension to your everyday life and create extraordinary works of art through modern embroidery.
