    for those white stitches on the back of the owl you can take a black sharpie and just go over them, it works like a charm.

    They came out so cute! My next one is going to be the jack o lantern too. One tip I've found useful for satin stitch is to make the first stitch down the middle of the design outline. Then make another one a little away from the center line on both sides. Kind of like segmenting it in quarters. Then I go back and fill in the blank areas. I'm not good at explaining it. lol I'll make a little video if you want. It makes the stitches more even than starting at one end

      @calico_whimsy  2 года назад +1

      I can't wait to see your jack o lantern! The way you do you satin stitch is how I 'try' to do mine as well. It just falls into place sometimes and other times it's a major fail, lol!

  • @collbn

    Oh, also, I cut a little piece of fabric softener sheet and put a piece in each sequin container. That way it keeps them static free all the time. I learned that trick with diamond painting.

    They are all too cute, but the owl is definitely my favorite. You did a wonderful job as usual. And now that you're a "leg" expert, the reindeer kit is next! If you start that kit, I'm definitely going to have to get one also even though I'm still working on the cardinals. 😁

    I'm not usually into anything Halloween, but these turned out adorable! Great tips, especially for those of us who have several of these kits but have lacked the confidence to actually attempt doing them. Thanks for showing this. The only other thing I need before starting one is to watch a video of someone actually showing the whole process of appliqueing the pieces together & stuffing them, then I'd be good to go. Unfortunately, I have yet to find a video of that. Every one that I've watched skips through that part, I guess assuming that people already know how. I'm so glad fall is here! Love seeing all your projects. 😊🍂🎃🕷️

    Christine, I’ve finished my cat, but my kit didn’t have a complete backing. When I checked off each step after double checking everything, the back of the jester collar was exposed.
