Nice tutorial. For me personally it's easier to seperate the 6 strands before stiching but use them all at the same time. This way they are nice and parallel without twisting.

@cassiemdias3 ай бұрын
When I was first starting out and trying to do the satin stitch, I found that when I started at the edge, my design would warp a bit, which may have had something to do with my fabric not being pulling taut enough…I’m not sure. I figured out that when I started a little bit further in, the stress was taken off the very edge.
