Video - How to Stem Stitch


A few weeks ago I released a pattern called It's a Dirty Job - all about how much I hate doing the dishes.


I used stem stitch for that little bit of script at the end - and I promised a how-to video soon. Well - here it is! How to stem stitch.

This is a really common outline stitch that I hardly ever use. I'm not sure why - it's certainly very easy. It's just that I always default to back stitch or split stitch. But if you need to outline tight curves - stem stitch is definitely the way to go. It'll give you the smoothest curves around cursive letters or twisty vines.

Happy stitching!

Best,
Wendi
