Embroidery Fill Stitches You Should Know 

Thanks, I thought it was a nice touch!

I DIDNT EVEN NOTICE THATS MAKES ME RESPECT THE TIME PUT INTO THIS SO MUCH MORE

I didn’t notice till you said so. That’s very cool.

I respect your profile picture

I Love your profile picture

Aw, I love that! I have some unfinished pieces from my mother, who passed away several years ago, and getting to work on something she put so much time and love into really connects me to her. I hope you have fond memories of your grandmother while taking care of her beautiful handiworks!

🥰🥰🥰what a lovely thing you do !

I’m sure ur grandma is very happy

I'm sorry for your loss. I hope you continued to learn to complete some of her pieces.

I would love to know how your progress is on this :) such a sweet idea and I hope even if you only look at them it still brings you closer to her when you see them

Haha thank you! I love helping people get a good nap in!

I was just thinking this as my eyelids grew verrryyy heavvvvyyyy 😴

This music is actually put from a sleeping music

@@gettheetothestitchery what do you call this type of music? and from which cd is this from? thank you.

@@JinkyFlaviano look up hertz music

Welcome to the embroidery community, and I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I love to pass on what I've learned to new stitchers!

Which fabric should use to properly embroidery at learning

@@anujaamale1417 hi, im learning and i like to use the 100% cotton fabric cause its soft and easy to see through. 🤍

@@anujaamale1417 I'm also no expert but I looked it up a year ago when I had time to try it out and apparently cotton is the go to (but i guess (cotton)linen may be an option?)

Thankyou helps alot

So true! Long and short stitch is the foundation of thread painting because of how it blends colors into each other.

Thank you! There's definitely a newfound interest in this art, and I'm happy to pass along what I know.

I'm so glad you found it helpful!

I'm so glad to hear that!

Agreed!

I'm so glad you like it! And yeah, obnoxious music is a no-go for me.

Awesome, welcome back!

Well, I'm glad you enjoyed it, and I hope you are intimidated no more!

i am so confused

@@vegan.3176 me too! I literally came to the comments to see if anyone discussed this thread saver technique. I wish the video didn't edit out any of that process to help with understanding exactly how to do it

The proper stitch always goes top to bottom, so you're also doing a full stitch on the back each time. The saver goes top to bottom then bottom to top, making just a short little stitch on the back. You can't stitch as closely this way, so you then need to go back and fill in the gaps, also using top to bottom, bottom to top.

So very true! I hope you are able to finish it now and then admire your hard work!

Hey, making it up as you go is the perfect way to discover new techniques!

Aw you're too kind!

Yay, go for it! It's such a relaxing and rewarding craft!

Gracias por compartir tu arte

Yes! Crow's foot is such a specific stitch, and it always gives me so many ideas of awesome geometric patterns that could be done with it. Go for it! This sampler is available in my Etsy shop if you would like to give it a try: www.etsy.com/listing/870410522/pdf-pattern-embroidery-modular-sampler?ref=shop_home_feat_4

that’s an awesome idea. i might do the same

That was my first thought too xD

That's awesome! My goal is to make these videos nice and clear so everyone can conquer new stitches!

That's so kind of you to say, thank you!

Oo very true! I'm picturing a mountain range vista over a tessellated sunset... could be very cool looking!

I wonder how hard it would be to have a more complex tessellation tile as a design... hmmmm

It's always my pleasure to do so!

You're so welcome!

That's great! I love creating something that can be useful around the world!

Great excuse to make a new project when you finish this one!

Time to revisit your needle and thread!

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! If you want to stick with the no VoiceOver/peaceful music style, check out all my embroidery meditation videos - I put them out before each new group of tutorials, and they just feature all of the stitches done slowly with no talking!

That's so fun! I'm glad to hear that schools are using embroidery as a teaching tool!

I'm so glad!

You should definitely give stitching a try - it's a super relaxing craft!

I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!

That's wonderful, I'm so glad!

You are so welcome!

I'm so glad it was helpful!

Very true!

Yay! Welcome to the world of stitching!

I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you so much!

Oo yes! I love seeing a mixture of different artworks and crafts!

Aw thank you!

I'm so glad you found it helpful!

I'm so glad you enjoyed it, and I hope you keep exploring this lovely craft!

Oh my goodness, that's so sweet! I'm sure you will make some beautiful designs!

Very true! The thread saver method can be helpful when you're trying not to compress your fabric too much, when you're on the last leg of a thread color, or if the section you're sewing doesn't need a lot of back stability to it, but when in doubt and when able, it's always better to go with the proper way.

Thank you very much!

Oo I'm so curious now... Haha but we have all been there!

... Im curious too-

O, geez. ok - A 2mm split-stitch. As dense-ish fill. Takes forever, looks not so great. Seed-like, prone to gaps.

@@JoannCarolus wasn't expecting an answer but thanks for telling!😄

Check out some of the other tutorial videos to see how to do every stitch on this pattern!

Yay! That's the goal!

Thanks! To find out more about the thread saver vs proper stitches, check out my video on hoop butts here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-c9JblTcRgjI.html As far as the large spaces go, I would recommend not using satin stitch to fill them. It can be tempting to go with satin stitch so you have those clean, straight lines, but don't be afraid to try out other fill stitches like brick, long and short, chain, or split stitch. Those will add some texture to the shape, but they will also keep your stitches tight and close to the fabric. If you really want to do satin stitch, make sure your fabric is pulled as tight as possible, and give each stitch an extra (gentle) tug to make sure you are leaving no slack as you go around.

Thank you very much!

So when doing satin stitch the proper way, you are putting just as much floss on the back of the fabric as on the front. This gives you a nice, sturdy stitch, but it also leaves a lot of floss unseen. If I'm running out of a certain color and want to conserve my thread, I'll do the thread saver version, when puts a lot less floss unseen on the back of the fabric, and therefore uses less floss overall!

I don't embroidery at all but wondered the same and eventually guessed that it might help stabilize it during wear to prevent bunching. Stress on any single thread in the fill will tug at several different parts of it, right? So maybe it recovers from accidents better?

I wondered the same. I wish we can see the back..

@@riezlcoveta7463 Check out my video on knots and hoop butts for a view of the back and explanation of the thread saver stitches!

exactly why i stopped watching.

It is a pattern I designed on my own! You can see all the final projects on my IG account, @gettheetothestitchery!

Glad it was helpful!

I actually have a video coming out soon that will cover all of this information! Stay tuned!

I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

The thread saver option will cover the same amount of area using less thread, because there is not as much left on the back of the fabric as in the normal method. Sometimes, we are scrimping to save the last bit of a certain color, so a thread-saving method of a stitch can help prolong the running out.

Aw you're too kind, thank you so much! I'm glad I could be helpful to you!

If you are using only one or two strands of embroidery floss, or if you're using a regular sewing thread instead of one meant for embroidery, it's going to be super hard to fill an area (especially a decently large one) with thread. I definitely suggest going up to 3+ strands of embroidery floss to make it way easier, then think about making each stitch almost on top of the one before it. Hope that helps!

@@gettheetothestitchery Oh Ok thanks so much, I don't have any needles specially for embroidery, so I tried using two strands but it couldn't fit in :P

Satin stitch will definitely look cleaner the fewer (or thinner) thread you use. This was done with three strands of embroidery floss, which is a really comfortable zone to stay in, but if you want it to be even cleaner, you can drop to 2 or even 1 strands! It will take a lot more focus and patience to make the edges perfect and fill in an area, but in the end, it will look amazing.

That's awesome! Welcome to the stitching community!

Tutorials with VoiceOver are coming soon!

Im actually prefering these stuff without voiceovers😀 i never thought id prefer these but after some videos im really loving no voiceover videos!😁

You're so very welcome!

Thank you so much!
