You just made my whole day I’m going to cry thank you so much 🥹🥹🥹

[Lenneke]

This is incredible, thank you so much! Especially the splitting of floss by just pulling one out straight up. But so many good tips for a beginner like me, love it. Thanks :)

I tried this and it turned out amazing!!!! Thank you for all these step by step videos. I’m going to see if you have any videos on flowers. I’m hooked now!

Best tutorial on this I've seen ❤. After a little trial and error (and some aggravation because I didn't have the adhesive wash away stabilizer so I pinned on tear away... don't do that 😂) I got the hang of it.
Your stitches are perfect ❤

Great Tutorial! Exactly what I was looking for!

Thank you for this tutorial. Easy to follow 😊

Thank you for your video! It is very helpful. Do find it necessary to cover the back stitches to make sure the stitches do not come loss? Do you have a recommendation to cover up the stiches?

I appreciate this tutorial so much! Thank you for posting this, so helpful!

[edithcova]

thanks for this video, for a beginner like me it was a great solution 🙌

[Melissa-ijmn]

Thank you for your tutorial, can I ask do you sew a backing on the swaddle ?

[ashleyfoster]

Love this video!! Thank you for sharing ❤

[JaneLeggiero-yykj]

Why am I so worried about my initial knot pulling through? Is there any other way to start? I was considering doing it on a thermal blanket so I feel like the knot may come through at some point. Should I put a knot and leave a tail to weave through the back stitches once my first letter is done?

But thank you so much for this tutorial!!!! ❤❤❤

I made one when my girlfriend got a surprise baby sister in her 20s and I think I’m the favorite daughter now 😌😌
Just kidding! But for real it’s suchhhh a lovely design and so much easier than it looks
Thx for sharing !!!

Ashley, are you going down the same hole as the thread is in or in the middle of the stitches

[cindyshapland]

Excellent tutorial! Thank you so much.
May I ask what size needle you are using?

[nowayitsway]

I loved your video. I’m going to get supplies tomorrow. I’m wondering if you can make a video but making the letters bold, much thicker?
