This morning I have uploaded some lovely new linens to the Vetty Creations website. They are from Weberei Weddigen (Weddigen Weaving) in Germany, who are manufacturers of high quality linen fabrics for hand embroidery.<\/p>\n

At this stage, I have chosen to stock three of their fabrics: Weddigen 121 linen (50 count), Weddigen 160 linen (34 count), and Weddigen 925 linen (40 count).<\/p>\n

Weddigen 121 linen, 50 count<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"See-through

Weddigen 121 linen is see-through.<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

Weddigen 121 linen<\/a> is a simply lovely fabric that I just had to stock. It is a very lightweight linen, which is see-through. It is perfect for use in shadow embroidery and other embroideries such as fine white work, that require a lightweight, gossamer-ish linen. As it is evenweave 50 count linen, you could also do counted embroidery on it, if you were game!<\/p>\n

Unfortunately I’ve come to things a little late with regards to this linen. It is no longer being manufactured, and therefore the stock that exists will eventually run out. I will continue to stock it for as long as I can.<\/p>\n

Specifications: Weddigen Artikel 121 linen – 185cm wide, evenweave 50 count, 100% linen, bright white.

\nWeddigen 160 linen, 34 count<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Weddigen

Weddigen 34 count linen, Weddigen Artikel 160<\/p><\/div>\n

Weddigen 160 linen<\/a> (34 count evenweave) is recommended for Schwalm embroidery by specialist Schwalm embroidery teachers in Germany. It can of course also be used for Hardanger embroidery, cross stitch and other counted embroidery. It is a lovely looking fabric.<\/p>\n

Specifications: Weddigen Artikel 160 linen – 140cm wide, evenweave 34 count, 100% linen, bright white.

\nWeddigen 925 linen, 40 count<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Weddigen

Weddigen 40 count linen, Weddigen Artikel 925<\/p><\/div>\n

Weddigen 925 linen<\/a> (40 count evenweave) fabric is also recommended for Schwalm embroidery by specialist Schwalm embroidery teachers in Germany. As with the 34 count linen, it can also be used for Hardanger embroidery, cross stitch and other counted embroidery. Because it is has so many threads per inch\/cm, and is not “gappy” between threads, it can also be successfully used as a ground fabric for non-counted, surface embroidery.<\/p>\n

\nIs she…?<\/strong>
\nAnd so, these recommendations of fabrics for Schwalm embroidery and shadow embroidery might have your mind whirring… “Is she writing a book on Schwalm? Is she writing a book on shadow embroidery?” Sorry if it disappoints, but no, neither of these forms of embroidery are the subject of my next book.<\/p>\n

All these linens are available on the Vetty Creations website<\/a>. They are well priced, and while the prices are comparatively lower than other linens, the quality is definitely not lower.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
