I just did a sunflower this way on some overalls and it turned out cute! thanks for posting this

Trashy Bee Waifu amazing! on overalls would be so cute! 😊

Love this. How do you stop the thread from twisting when you do the sunflower? I have to keep flattening mine out on every petal but it looks like you did them all without stopping.

[@riverbirchthreads4791]

mandy meow hey Mandy! Honestly it’s difficult to do. I find I have to really guide it with my fingers a lot of time and even pull it out and try to re-do the stitch to keep it from twisting sometimes but I can’t always get it perfect!

Thanks for sharing this video! I'm an absolute beginner and tried it on my face mask today :D I don't know why but i took me a very, very long time.. Though it looks very cute now :)

[@riverbirchthreads4791]

thaihien it takes a long time when you first begin!! As you keep practising you’ll get way faster 😊

[@karathomas1241]

Are you using all 6 strands doubled, so 12 strands at a time?

[@riverbirchthreads4791]

Kara Thomas yes! Apologies about the late reply.

[@jacksparrowarrrr]

Why does it look like she only has two strings? Hope this isn’t a stupid question

[@luanevans5109]

@@jacksparrowarrrr shes using the full 6 threads of the skein but doubled so 12 strands all together

Can I ask how you did the leaves for the sunflower?

[@riverbirchthreads4791]

Natalie Wright I used fishbone stitch for the leaves but I curved the shape a bit so they would look kind of pointed down like that. I used backstitch on the steam.

May I ask, what are you using to hold your hoop..so it allows you to work using both hands?

[@riverbirchthreads4791]

Rayda Cicchetti I am using a small desk hoop stand which I purchased from Hawthorne Made
