New Blog Post!

Hey, Everyone! If you've been seeing inconsistent stitches or even a slight zig-zag in your backstitch...I have 5 tips to share with you that may help! I'm sharing two of my favorite tips below, but find all five in a new blog post!

  1. Keep Even Stitch Lengths- This gets easier with time...but aim for about 1/4" spacing per stitch (with about 1/8" around curves). You can even pre-measure and make dots if it helps!

  2. Practice Stitch Placement- Make sure you're placing your needle directly into the hole from the previous stitch. Placing your needle down even the slightest bit on either side can make your straight line into a little zig-zag!

Have questions? Post them here...I'm happy to help!
