The photo doesn't show the first layer of padding, which was stitched vertically, and covered by the horizontal stitches you see here. Then the final layer is vertical again, which I've started in the photo. It uses a lot of thread!Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12224346283881001640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-777082361967445123.post-13427643454334430262013-10-17T09:56:42.973-04:002013-10-17T09:56:42.973-04:00Your embroidery is very nice - keep making it your...Your embroidery is very nice - keep making it your own. I wish I were better at it. Perhaps I should do more of it. Thank you for showing how you do the padded stitch. It looks like it could be a great technique.Doloreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00013261733996949731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-777082361967445123.post-43245345908697626792013-10-17T09:20:52.282-04:002013-10-17T09:20:52.282-04:00Thanks very much, Margaret!

It is surprising, though, how helpful the padding and outline are. Even though the apple feels heavy, the fabric didn't pull on the first one I tried. It just wasn't very even, that's all.Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12224346283881001640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-777082361967445123.post-13136626278856829212013-10-17T01:27:32.269-04:002013-10-17T01:27:32.269-04:00your best friends block is lovely and like how you...your best friends block is lovely and like how you have changed the stitches on the flowers. The apples will be a challenge, I find that satin stitch can pull the fabric even when using a hoop, I am sure you will do them perfectly.margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14225676137708827434noreply@blogger.com
