ABOUT ME:
Thanks for visiting my channel, I hope you enjoyed the video! I founded Caterpillar Cross Stitch in 2015 when I tried desperately for months to find a modern baby sampler my mum could stitch for new baby Felicity that would fit in with her simple, contemporary nursery. I love cross stitch, running, baking fruit cakes, drinking gin, eating salted caramel ice cream and most crafts!
See you soon and happy stitching! Sally x

Hey, Ford! Thanks for the great tips. I’m thinking that weaving with low-contrast floss and pin this high-contrast. I appreciate people who find humour in their daily lives. I haven’t x-stitched in decades-I’m a quilter-but I recently ordered a small kit of quilts on a clothesline. X-stitch will be great option for when I’m camping! I recently subscribed to this channel, but I’m going to subscribe to yours as well. 🤖 “Danger! Danger! Will Robinson!” 😂🤣😂 Thank you, and stay well! snowy Muskoka ON 🇨🇦

I definitely never go camping without a stitch to work on. A headlamp or book light can be very handy for that!

@CaterpillarCrossStitch 2 месяца назад

Thank you for watching!

I loved the Will Robinson reference 😂

Thanks for watching!

My favorite is the modified pin stitch. It looks neat on both sides.

@SonovaStitch 4 месяца назад

It's a little difficult to master and I haven't had great luck with it on linen, but it's definitely a useful trick to have in your arsenal!

@CaterpillarCrossStitch 2 месяца назад

Thank you for watching!

@lisaboban 4 месяца назад

Wonderful! Never understood how that isolated pin stitches work!!! Two additional thoughts... Replace these with beads secured by a thread color which you can carry. This adds additional dimension to the piece. Also, skip 'em!!!

@CaterpillarCrossStitch 2 месяца назад

Great idea! Thanks for sharing!

@leslieprice9224 4 месяца назад

Very helpful video. How about one showing different ways to backstitch a steep angle.

@cswesman 4 месяца назад

Love the channel! I’m relatively new to cross stitch (working through the cross stitch school bookmark project). One of my biggest sources of anxiety is knowing how long each thread of floss should last (how many half-stitches can be done before turning around and completing the stitches without running out of floss too soon). It may be a super noob question, but I have no one else to ask. Please help by addressing how you approach this!

@SonovaStitch 4 месяца назад

I feel like I mostly go based on instinct, but I'll see if I can suss out some tips!

@barbarahaynes-bi4hk 4 месяца назад

It's trial and error to start with! At first practise guessing when you will be halfway thru your length of thread , then after awhile you will find you can judge things quite nicely! 😊

@CaterpillarCrossStitch 2 месяца назад

A lot of our community members measure the thread against their forearm, up to their elbow.

@lorenaariasbuentello5926 4 месяца назад

Exactly what I needed!!! Thank you very much. You’ve been a great help.

@CaterpillarCrossStitch 2 месяца назад

For the modified pin stitch, should I use a 26 needle on 14 Aida cloth?

@therapistitcher523 4 месяца назад

So helpful!! You make it look easy. How does this work on higher count fabrics?

@carolyncrowder9136 4 месяца назад

Hi Ford , another great video. Could you demo how to do confetti stitches on linen or evenweave fabric? Thank you

@CaterpillarCrossStitch 2 месяца назад

Great suggestion!

@solarwinds- 4 месяца назад

Hey Ford, thanks for the demo. Do you work on even weave, one over one? Do you have starts and finishes for confetti stiches for those too? BTW where's Nugget?

@RedPandaHomebody 4 месяца назад

Does the pin stitch only work for very dark threads? It looks like it would be pretty noticeable if done with another color - like a bright red that would show just as much behind, seems like it would also show the pin stitch (or at least it would lay noticeably different than ones other stitches)? This has always been my concern about pin stitches in general.

@dalmatink223 4 месяца назад

For the third method, modified pin/confetti stitch do you use a tapestry or sharp needle? Thanks.

@carolevans3021 3 месяца назад

How do I handle these stitches when using called for 3 strands. I can't do a loop start so am stuck.

@SWEETDFAN17 3 месяца назад

You can do a loop start with 3 stands.

@SWEETDFAN17 3 месяца назад

Watch CCS video on 6 ways to start your thread. It's not Ford doing the video, but it's still really good! I sometimes use 3 strands and use the loop method

@CaterpillarCrossStitch 3 месяца назад

Thanks for watching! We hope the video suggested by @SWEETDFAN17 helps, you can find it here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-87Aqqoqsrfg.htmlfeature=shared
