Members 8thsinner Posted November 20, 2008 Members Report Posted November 20, 2008 Amazing clean lines there. That pouch could survive a war by the look of it. Keep up the good work. Quote Doing the right thing is bleeding for the cause. Website Facebook
Members singteck Posted November 20, 2008 Author Members Report Posted November 20, 2008 Thank you everyone :D Can you tell us a little more about the thread type and needle size. I'm still trying to improve my hand stitching so any additional tips you can give will be appreciated. The thread is hand twisted using natural single strand thread. It's the same as a 18/3 thread when done. The needle is a normal no. 1 saddler's needle. When stitching, you have to be consistent with the placement of the needle and thread for every stitch. You have to make sure the lay of the thread is the same for every stitch. The tension on the thread have to be consistent too. A lot of practice helps. Cheers singteck Quote
