Recently I have found a renewed interest in chainstitch embroidery. I often wonder if embroiderers like Rose Clements and Viola Grae, who both did chainstitch embroidery for Nudie's Rodeo Tailors, were as fascinated with the machines as I am. There is something magical about the Cornely and Singer chainstitch machines.
This Cornely L was owned by a woman in California who ran a successful custom embroidery business. |
My most recent western shirt features chainstitch embroidery worked on my Singer 114w103. The yoke and sleeves are wool gabardine and the navy pinstripe is an Italian wool suiting fabric.
