satin stitch

 hello, thank you for your beautiful website. I am learning a lot from it. Currently I am engaging in a sewing project that requires me to do a satin stitch. I believe this stitch is an embroidery technique but I did not see it on your site. Is there anyway you can make a video showing this stitch? Thank you!

Re: Satin Stitch

Dear Ashley,

We are planing to make another embroidery video lesson in the future, which will include different embroidery stitches as well as the satin stitch. For now please watch the below videos that explain how to do satin stitch embroidery.

Satin Stitch Video Tutorial

Embroidery: How to Satin Stitch

Here is an explanation on how to do a Splitstitch, which you can use prior to the satin stitches.

Happy Sewing,

Nehzat

Newbie Also

I'm also glad I found it.  I'm a real newbie, I'm just doing my first piece, its a sampler that says SWEET DREAMS.  I'm just learning the different stitches, Right now the only stitch I know is the satin stitch.  I've joined the Embroidery Guild of America, EGA, but these woman are way beyond me, but they are real patient and they give me good advice.  But I think this will be real good.

Thanks so much

 Thanks for the encouragement. Sometimes I get overwhelmed in my mind about sewing. Oh, I saw you on facebook a couple of months back and joined as a friend. My user name is JCSmitty and it's 99 percent sewing! That's why I joined FB to try to connect to sewers. :-) Thanks again.

I'm new, too

Hello. I joined in mid-October, but never came to this side to introduce myself. I live in the Washington, DC area and am a beginner. I know how to sew straight lines, thread the machine, wind the bobbin. Just doing that again over the past 8 months or so after being away from sewing for about 30 years (I learned sewing in Home Economics classes in my early teens).

I will probably subscribe after I've reviewed some of the free courses--which look great! Very detailed. Thanks again. -JC

Hello my name is Pam,

I reside in Australia, the area that I live in does not have a sewing club now as it closed down about 6 months ago.  I often dont finish things because I get stuck and dont know what to do.  I have 2 Granddaughters and 2 Grandsons all under 4 so they are at the best age to sew for.  I have made them nothing but a tracksuit in the past.  I am looking forward to making them dresses, shorts, shirts etc.

Glad that I found your site, thank you for setting it up, I will tell my friends to have a look as well.

Regards Pam

straight stitch embroidery

Hello

I'm just a beginner in embroidery and I am looking for a free video or instructions that will teach me to do various stitches.  Especially the straight stitch.  I need this stitch to finish a project I am working on.  Thanks, Connie

Re: Running or Straight Stitch

Dear Connie,

We do have two examples of running or straight stitches, they are located in the Hand Sewing Essentials and Tips video Lessons and the Embroidery Essentials video Lessons.  However you need to be a subscriber to get access.

The example from the hand sewing lesson is located here: 16. Running Stitch

The example from the embroidery lesson is located here: 4. Running Stitches

Thanks

Nehzat
