Hand Stitching Tip I Posted On Youtube

Thanks for the kind words guys. I do like sharing what I know.

The hard bit is working out what to do next.

I do want to take the myth out of pattern making. I find most patterns really easy. So easy I never keep patterns I bin them and just redo them when I want to make things.

I did do a simple notebook cover video. This showed a simple pattern. I might do a tote bag next again showing how I do the patterns.

Thank you for the video upload, as was previously mentioned you made this video concise and very targeted and that is much appreciated.

A quick practice with the technique you showed has significantly improved my stitching.

Thanks!

I'm glad it worked for you monkey. It is one of the ways I train students in my school

The way you explained it was definitively very easy to understand and simple to put into action.

After watching other you tube videos I had been pulling my backside thread to the top of the hole before putting through the front side needle and I could not understand why I wasn't getting a better angle on the stitch but after seeing you doing the opposite ( backside thread to the bottom) it kind of clicked for me and I'm getting much better angles now.
