Re: Brazilian Embroidery:

 

4. Fabric to embroidery on , approx 1/2 yd of Lenin, satin or heavy cotton.
Lenin is best for this project.

 

Oh, pretty please, can we use Trotsky instead?  :P

 

Just wondering if it would be better to work on a period technique instead?
Perhaps raised work, or after 1580 to 1600, stump work (which really reached
its height of popularity in the 17th century).  Brazilian embroidery, which
uses rayon thread primarily, is very much a newcomer to the world of textile
arts.
