Today's Raised Stitch Day! I have two videos featuring Ruth Schmuff of Bedecked and Beadazzled demonstrating raised closed herringbone stitch (perfect for leaves and feathers) and...
...Heidi of Chaparral Needle Needlepoint showing you how to make detached buttonhole for baskets and bags.
These stitches are easier than you would think. Practice in the margins of your current piece and you'll soon get the hang of it. (Tip: Practice with perle cotton as it's easy to handle when you are trying to master new stitches.)
