Hand embroidery neck designs for kurti – Step By Step (Tutorial)
Forget boring necklines! A beautifully embroidered blouse can transform your entire saree. In my experience, the key is starting with a design that complements the saree’s border. I always sketch my design on tracing paper first, then use a water-soluble pen or tailor’s chalk to transfer it directly onto the fabric.
Let’s tackle a classic Jadau-inspired neckline, perfect for party wear.
You’ll need: Fabric, embroidery hoop, needles, gold/silver zari thread, sequins, beads, and naqshi or pearl beads.
Secure & Trace: Hoop your blouse piece tightly. Transfer your chosen design onto the neckline area.
Outline is Key: Using a backstitch, outline the entire pattern with your zari thread. This creates the foundation. Don’t worry about perfection; a slightly rustic look adds charm!
Fill & Embellish: This is where the magic happens. Fill in sections with satin stitch. I remember a client who used tiny seed beads for a fill, and it was stunning! Stitch on sequins and larger beads securely.
The Final Touch: Add naqshi beads last for that royal, dimensional effect. Knot everything securely on the wrong side.
Pro Tip: According to a 2023 report by Craftsmanship Magazine, there’s a huge trend towards mixing traditional techniques with contemporary designs—think geometric zari patterns on a simple cotton blouse. It’s all about personalization!
