Thanks for your video, it's the clearest, easiest to understand and follow tutorial I've seen and it's not too long. I've just learnt that after all these years I've been reading my fractional stitches wrong e.g. doing ¾ stitch instead of a ¼ stitch so showing the chart really helped. If anyone wants to learn fractional stitches I'll show them you're video 😊 👍🪡🧵

She explains things so clearly, she's my top fave youtuber for explanations. I watched another youtube video on fractional stitches and the symbol they showed was actually for a quarter but they stitched it as a 3 quarter so because I followed that tutorial first, I have to frog now after seeing this video lol
@desireeg58073 жыл бұрын
Thanks heaps for this. I know you posted it years ago but I just (re)started and I legit thought the quarter stitch meant that I had to put the entire × in that particular part of the square and I was trying to work out the logistics. And how to not mess it up. Your video made it all make sense 😂

Thank you so much for the tutorial on 1/4 stitches - I have been doing 3/4 stitches for 1/4 stitches!!! I have numerous 1/4 stitches on the pattern I am doing and from your tutorial they are now a breeze - I like the fact that your tutorial was so up close and personal that I could actually see clearly the difference in 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4. Thanks again so much - you have made my cross stitching so much better 😍

This was not only helpful for aida, it showed us the logistics of combining quarter- and half-stitches regardless of the fabric being used, and demonstrated how symbols indicating those stitches may appear on a chart! I think it may give me what I need to get back to a UFO I've started several times in both needlepoint and cross stitch, only to abandon each one because of inexperience, blended threads, and fractional stitches. Pinning this one in my Cross Stitch folder for sure! Thank you! Edited to add: and piercing with a separate sharp point is genius!

I almost always do my quarter stitches as 3/4 stitches. Especially as that's usually where the backstitch goes, and I feel it gives better definition or shape. I know it's technically "wrong" but just my preference! and the pin is a great idea!

I have a dilemma... I've done 1/4 stitch the way you make the 3/4 stitch, and in my actual pattern, which is Disney "Hachette" Embroidery, they asked us to make a quarter point like a 3/4 stitch... The little quarter point first, then the large half point over it... The symbol you show on your pattern, the first one, it's called a quarter stitch but they showed us to make it as the 3/4 one... I think I've made a mistake my whole life... And French pattern makers too.

On the 3/4 stitch when your showing it on the pattern. How would you do the stitch right next to it in another color? I pretty sure the symbol for that color was a 3. It looks like there are two 3/4 stitches in the same box
@Stitcherista8 ай бұрын
If there are two 3/4 stitches in the same box you would choose one of them to be the dominant stitch, which ever color you want to see the most because you would do two quarter stitches one in each color but then the half stitch that makes it a 3/4 stitch is only done in one color so you need to pick which of the two colors you want to use.
