I rather do chain stitches backwards, starting with the "securing stitch" leaving it loose enough to pass the thread thru. And back down where I came in. Dunno why, just seems tidier and more symetric chains when i do it backwards than the way its taught 🤷♀️
I’ve been planning to embroider some cursive lettering on a t-shirt (jersey knit material). Do you think chain stitch would be my best option or would another stitch be more forgiving on such stretchy material?
@@hellyeah_ellajane Yes! I don’t have a lot of experience with clothing embroidery, but check out stitching with Samantha on insta and tiktok. She has tons of tutorials and info on that!!
@@ModernLifeisThrift cool, I’m doing cursive but it’s really broad and loopy so I’m hoping it works! If not, the shirt I’m stitching on is thrifted so no big loss (besides my time) if it doesn’t turn out.
Can’t imagine working with that claws 😅😂😂😂 I’m from Ukraine, believe me your nails still consider short in my country. But for needlework I had to give them up😅
Oh how very difficult you do it dear. That makes it intimidating. Why don't uou move the needle forward into the loop. Why to bring it up and forward. Why not to slide the needle keeping the loop stay forward.
