    I LOVE the way you made the ending knot. That way it can't pop out through the fabric. Sometimes for the beginning knot, if I'm afraid the knot may eventually pop through, say I'm using two strands of thread. I'll make the beginning knot, put my needle through to the front and then when I go back down, I'll slip the needle through the two strrands above the knot before going back to the top. Did that make sense?

  • @maryleafmakes9785
    @maryleafmakes9785  21 день назад +1

    To answer your question:
    I promise, if you keep the tail long enough and don’t pull too hard, the tail will not come through while embroidering. When you hold the needle, try to hold on at the eye to help keep it from coming through. It just takes some practice but it’s pretty easy once you get the hang of it!

  • @fleetlepop6761
    @fleetlepop6761 2 месяца назад +1

    How does the tail not come out of the eye when you’re embroidering or pulling the thread to make a stitch? Are you holding the needle with the tail and the thread next to it?

      The knot on the bottom always allows there to be tension in the thread.

    • @lesliekendall5668
      @lesliekendall5668 2 года назад +2

      You tie the final knot at the end when the thread gets short enough that there's not enough thread to work with and still knot it at the end.

      Say if you want to use 2 strands, all she was saying is that she threads the needle with 2 strands and leaves a tail. But some people put 1 strand through the needle and tie the ends together to make it end up 2-stranded.

      She made a single knot at the bottom (which usually isn't big enough and will pop through the fabric) but instead of making the knot bigger by tying knot after knot in the same place, she made the knot larger on the bottom by wrapping the thread around the needle and sliding it down to the lower knot.
