Good question. Brazilian embroidery is all so refered to as dimensional or 3-D embroidery. Most embrodery is flat where this embroidery is raised.

    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 17 th century).  Brazilian embroidery, which uses rayon thread primarily, is very much a newcomer to the world of textile arts.
