Simple Stitches How To : Open Chain Stitch

Open Loop Stitch: Begin by stitching through the underneath of backside of your piece, pull your thread all the way through, leaving a space, stitch back through the top side of your piece, pull your thread through but leave a loop remaining. From the backside, stitch just behind the bottom of your loop, pull your thread all the way through and then make another stitch just below your loop, stitching all the way through your loop will now be held in place.This stitch is also called a daisy stitch, loop stitch, wishbone stitch, well - you get the idea! Happy Stitching!

(insert a million exclamation marks here) I obviously can't share many details of what I'm working on but I'll try to share what I can along the way and keep you updated. I can tell you that, my book is being published with North Light Books and will be released in 2012. It's going to feature a lot of brand new & interesting projects that I'm so excited to be working on! In fact, I must admit I'm not -the best- secret keeper so not being able to post & share all of these neat new things is going to be so, so difficult!!! This is also the reason I've been a little MIA lately and had temporarily taken down some of my wholesale listings, etc. So just wanted to let you all know whats up!
