kits i have been having such fun with the oxford punch needle rest is the latest that i have done and i enjoyed doing it soon it will hanging on my workroom wall don t you love the little loops that this yarn creates i used the oxford 14 punch needle which is by far my favorite i have kits available in my etsy shop my etsy shop let me know if you have any questions at all thank you yvonne posted by yvonne at 1 01 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest friday july 7 2017 punch needle part 2 foundation cloths leave it to me to forget to mention the foundation cloths that are used for the different punch needles that i talked about yesterday so today i will show you the different cloths that are used for the oxford punch needle vs the cameo remember flosses are used with the cameo punch needle tight weave for tiny little loops soooo when we punch with flosses and the cameo we need a foundation with a tight weave we use weavers cloth when i have asked for it in quilt shops i always specify that i will be using a punch needle and embroidery floss then there is no confusion i purchase mine from a local quilt store as well as the online store punch needle marketplace ladies in my group tell me that you can also find it at joanne s yarn wool strips and ribbon can be used with the oxford punch needles notice the weave and the grid lines for punching with the oxford needles you can use monks cloth or linen i like using monks cloth it works very nicely and the price is right a while back ago in my lavender ladies punch needle group we were discussing foundation cloths for the oxford if you are familiar with amy oxford s book punch needle rug hooking techniques and design you will see that at that time amy oxford recommended using only monks cloth for her punch needles well in our discussion she replied and said since i wrote my book punch needle rug hooking i ve heard from many customers who punch on primitive linen we sell it at the oxford company and you can also get it at the dorr mill store personally i prefer monk s cloth because the needle glides through it more easily than through linen my mini fine point needles do work very nicely on linen i can recommend linen for my 8 fine 9 fine 10 fine 13 fine the mini with heels and the 14 fine the mini that was a really nice day having amy comment in our group the week end is here i hope you will enjoy it yvonne posted by yvonne at 10 25 am 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest thursday july 6 2017 lavender ladies punch needle group i would really like to invite everyone to join my lavender ladies punch needle group on facebook it started as a group for oxford punch needle enthusiasts and now i think we have a nice blend of work using both the oxford punch needle and the cameo punch needles come join us lavender ladies punch needle group on facebook every week there are new comers that have many questions about both needles above is the oxford punch needle it is one of many sizes this one is the 14 which is used for tiny loops my favorite there are oxford punch needles for thicker yarns as well high loops low loops high and fine or to use for detail here is a link to the oxford website page showing all the sizes amy oxford punch needles here is a close up photograph of a couple of the different loop sizes these needles can create notice that the lavender and stems are higher than the tiny loops around it the higher loops were done in a 10 fine and the shorter loops which most of the rug is done in was done in 14 this is a larger photo of that rug for you to see this is called lavender lady the entire rug was done in hand dyed yarn that i did i used little french knots for the lavender in the borders now what is a cameo punch needle above is the cameo as you can see it comes with three tip sizes this one you use flosses what floss you use is entirely up to you dmc valdani are probably the most popular valdani is variegated and my favorite but dmc is very very nice as well there is also a moire wool thread it is not variegated but rather heather like this is a little punch needle design i did for punch needle primitive stitcher magazine it s a close up so you can see what punching with valdani floss and the cameo looks like above is fields of wheat that i have been doing with wool lace that i have dyed you can see my basket of some of the lace below the lace runs through the cameo large needle like a dream and i love the hand dyed look i will be creating kits for this soon so what do you think i am sure there is so much to add to this i would appreciate any comments at all if anyone has anything a beginner may want to know posted by yvonne at 6 16 am 2 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest saturday april 22 2017 an inspiration today i ran some errands and my favorite errand was going over to pick up this book at the library i love embroidery stitches and thought i might find something fun in the pages of this book and i did ribbon embroidery i have seen it many times before but this time i really studied it and started wondering if i couldn t use the idea of any of these stitches in my rugs one of my other errands today was a trip to my printer to have a pattern downsized so i can make it with the oxford needle and my yarn i have been pondering the purples i want to use and how i will create them if you didn t know this i have an incredible attachment to this rug of mine french lavender lady i think i could make it over and over and never get tired of it it is hanging in my living room and i think it always will there is something about it that i love so much i am going to do a smaller version of it with the oxford punch needle i opened up my wicker basket full of my old yarns that i have i wanted to play and experiment and i tried some french knots for the border lavender do you see the flower to the right i love that yarn it is several different colors i tried a little ribbon embroidery top with some thicker yarn anyway the flower on the left is a keeper and answered my question about integrating a basic embroidery stitch in my punch needle rug i will do next i cannot wait cannot cannot on my facebook page a day or two ago i asked for help in knowing what to write about on my blog i was asked about inspiration color design etc well this was today s inspiration and i just shared it with you yvonne posted by yvonne at 5 14 pm 7 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest friday april 21 2017 the oxford punch needle this is harvest blessings done with the amy oxford 14 punch needle and my worsted single ply wool yarn it measures 11 x 20 1 2 i have been selling these little patterns as kits this is a fourth pattern and it is based on my punch needle embroidery pattern harvest blessings many months ago i was working on a little punch needle piece with some valdani thread and the cameo punch needle as i working i was wishing that i could just dye those threads myself when i am working on something and i visualize it i like being able to just create it and that goes for color as well so i was thinking on how to do that when i began remembering a few years ago working with the oxford punch needle and yarn from a local fiber store i wondered if i could get my hands on some natural wool something like i used to use with a little thick and thin to it could i dye it myself and create that variation that we all enjoy while punching with valdani embroidery floss the answer was yes soooo i have been dyeing up single strand wool yarn and using a 14 oxford punch needle and enjoying myself thoroughly look at all that beautiful color that same color in the pot is shown here second from the left years ago right before i found rug hooking i had a brief couple years of using the amy oxford punch needle at the time i was using a 10 and a thicker yarn halcyon s rug yarn i will have to share later some photographs of some of the things i did back then gold champagne and soft huckleberry i have been really
