There are a lot of outline stitches you can use for different effects when you're embroidering - the running stitch is the easiest. It's a great stitch to start with. So watch the video and get stitching!
Tomorrow I'll be listing a pattern designed especially for using the running stitch.
Hi Wendy. Thank you for your embroidery tutorials - at least on these I'm a bit more familiar :) my grandmother taught me when I was a little girl! I have a doubt - which is the best stitch to embroider words? Thanks again,

I usually use backstitch for words - it works well for the tight turns that are in some letters. I also somtimes use split stitch because I like the raised texture, but it can be tricky if the curves are tight.
ReplyDeleteWendi, thanks for the tip :)
