Perfect Satin Stitches

Mary Corbet outlines ten tips that will create perfect satin stitches.  Since I use satin stitch a lot, you can bet I have bookmarked this page!  Not all the tips work for needlepoint canvas--choosing the right fabric, for example, but substitute using a sharp needle for this tip so that you can place each stitch right where you want it, even if the needle and thread has to go through a needlepoint canvas thread underneath--but most do.  Very useful information.  Thanks, Mary!
