Thank you so much I really really enjoyed watching you stitch the pattern on this jacket. It’s really really lovely too

[neilsalayne]

Thank you, just recently I had a thought of wanting to relearn how to do hand stiches❤

[LoveByHH]

This is the most helpful hand embroidery tutorial. Thank you for explaining what you are doing and why as some of us have no clue what we're doing and this feels very one-on-one.

I never knew Sulky stabilizer was what made stick & stich! Thank you for a great tip!😊

[artlesszebra]

The stabilizer is awesome! I wonder how it disappeared. I should have known.

Beautiful. Do you finish the back of the jacket? (cover the stitching where it will receive wear?)

[disyabackup]

Oh I love the result. Its so lovely. I hope you dont mind if I ask you a question. I've done 2 embroidery but when I take off the hoop. My jacket jeans and my polyester blazer become cringkle all over the embroidery. May I know what it cause? And how to avoid the cringkle result. Thank you so much before. Love from Indonesia 😊

Thank you for this video! I hope this doesn’t sound silly but I’ve never embroidered before. When your done pulling the stitching through do you just cut the string and leave it as is or do you knot it?

What does the backside look like? I'm sure that keeping the stitches neat is important for the back as well

[rhiannonsmith]

How have you finished the inside of the jacket please. Have you covered the reverse of the embroidery or just left it as it is? Thank you

[sheridell]

When the project is done, is the jacket machine washable?

[izzyeis]

hi! i've been planning on embroidering (for the first time) my denim jacket and i stumbled on some questions, like what are your tips on deciding what you want to put where, the design and placement, if it's stretchy should i use a stabiliser but skip the hoop so as to not stretch it? is it better freshly washed or worn once or twice so it can get soft-er before embroidery?

[paolafierro]

How long did it take you to finish this??

[fizzahraza]

What embroidery needle do you suggest for denim work?

[dianaarney]

I have question, I have purchased new demin jackets, do you recommend washing them before doing the embroidery?

[ilianashively]

How do ypu secure the knots when switching between colors?
