How to Stitch The Drizzle Stitch - Hand Embroidery Instructions for Left & Right Handers

[@judymarkel8029]

I have never done this stitch. Thank you for showing me. I'm left handed too and it's nice to see things that my brain dosent need to switch around😂

[@ArianeZurcher212]

Oh wonderful! Let me know how it goes!!

[@joanp105]

Found your videos and now, for the first time in my life, I can see another left handed person create these stitches. YAY👍👍👍

[@ArianeZurcher212]

This makes me SO happy!!! Thank you so much for reaching out and telling me. I started these videos because I wanted to watch a left handed person needle turn appliqué, but couldn’t find any. Then I thought how great it would be to see all of the stitches in Sue Spargo’s Creative Stitching book demonstrated for us lefties. And so here we are!! ❤️❤️❤️

Wonderful stitch and video. Thank you.

[@ArianeZurcher212]

I’m so glad you thought so! ❤️

I had never heard of a drizzle stitch until I stumbled upon a lovely dimensional stitching embroidery company, located in the UK. It was mentioned in their instructions for a pattern to create lavender. Bless you for having a video to do this for all of us LEFT HANDED stitchers. The world never thinks of making life simpler for US. BTW, I wanted to share a tip with you. If you put the tiniest drop of white glue or Fray-Check on the end of your thread and then roll it to a point and let dry, it will make re-threading your needle a breeze. Cheers!

[@ArianeZurcher212]

Thank you so much for the tip Carol. I will give that a try especially with those more problematic threads that can be so hard to rethread!

[@reanapakourtelli5506]

Thank you for your advise ☺️. I will use it at my coral design

[@ArianeZurcher212]

WonderfuL!

[@christineroberts6076]

I have come to realize your stitching is amazing, but now what impresses me the most is how you can thread not only your needle but a small bead as well without the aid of a threader and on the first try. Truly jealous now. Keep up the videos, I love them and they are just what I need for a stay at home stitcher.

[@ArianeZurcher212]

Christine Roberts - thank you so much! ❤️

I love this quirky stitch, I call it the dreadlocks of embroidery. I placed an order from Sue Spargo's Ohio online shop and bought that little wool pad and a variety of threads. I also invested in the needle pack-love the color of the tube matches the spool they are intended for. Thank you for all your videos!

[@ArianeZurcher212]

How great! I think it's pretty clever that those needle tops match the spools of thread. Makes it so much easier to remember, especially the milliners needles where the number doesn't follow any logical sense!

[@natureluvr_d7186]

@@ArianeZurcher212 and if you do other types of sewing/embroidery Lori Holt has some nice needles that are color coded so you can remember where you got your needle from. For example yellow is tapestry, pink is for binding, green is applique and so forth. Sometimes I can't remember where I pulled a needle from if I lay a project down for very long. It wouldn't help as much with Sue's specialty threads but thought I would post it here in case you have followers that sew, quilt or cross stitch, etc. So I have both and both are helpful for what they were created for.

[@ArianeZurcher212]

@@natureluvr_d7186 Thank you so much for telling us about this. I have not heard of Lori Holt, but will look her up now! Sounds like it would be very helpful!!

[@judymarkel8029]

Just tried it.! I am in Love. !!!!!!. Thank you thank you

[@ArianeZurcher212]

Aw… that’s so great. They are fun. Try adding a bead!!

[@judymarkel8029]

That will be my next thing😊

[@christipoulsom4003]

I'm right handed, but found your method - using my right hand index finger MUCH easier than using my left hand, its the only way I can get the twist. Thanks!

[@ArianeZurcher212]

Oh wonderful!! ❤️

As a leftie I have recently come to stitching, and finding the same impasse as when I tried knitting. Thank you for clarifying!

[@ArianeZurcher212]

Oh wonderful! Yes it can be daunting. ❤️

Hi Ariane, This is another stitch I have learned from Susan Taylor Brown although I haven't actually tried it out yet. It is full of possibilities. Thanks for sharing. Love the colours in the piece you are working on. 💕

I "Spargo-ed" a pillow which had wrapped presents on it, instead of the string bow I added drizzles. Wonderful video, thanks.
