What is stumps?

Stumpwork or increased work is a form of embroidery in which three -dimensional figures and scenes are created using stuffing, launching and stitches. It seems that this style of embroidery is almost exclusively British.

The popularity of this embroidery technique retreated almost as soon as it appeared, and experienced a revival in the 18th century, when the term "stump" was created to describe it.

there are many ZPs in the stumpActions to create an effect of a three -dimensional dimension. Most often, pieces of embroidery are carried out on one basic substance and then attached to the other, which allows Crafter to create the illusion of petals, flowing skirts and other three -dimensional structural elements. People often make this craft on wire frames that are sewn into the basic fabric, or using layers of tabs in the basic fabric that are covered with stitches.

Traditional stump is incredibly detailed. In addition to the inclusion of the basic embroidery, it may also include lace stitches, beading and other sewing and the displayed scenes can become quite complicated.

In the modern era, commercial embroidery is produced by embroidery through foam padding to create an increased effect, although some feel that this type of product does not have the same multidimensional aspect and rich details.
