@@mischievousstitches I will let you know, I haven’t stitched much this week, work is keeping me pretty busy. This is a two meeting week too, oh joy! But I cannot wait to get back to stitching.
Lorrie, thank you so much!!! This is the first time I was ever able to clearly see and understand how the sewing method is done! It was always a mystery to me, even when I tried watching other videos. I can’t wait to try it! 😊🩷 Meline
@@mischievousstitches Hey Lorrie, I just tried it on a long row of stitches, and I got it! I’m not sure if my brain “likes” this method yet, but it was so much faster! 😅 Thanks again for a great tutorial! Meline
Thanks for a great video on the sewing method . I had never heard of that method and you explained it very clearly! I think I’ll have give a try! Thanks for sharing!😊
Thank you for sharing your tutorial I stitch in had I tried the hoop but had to go back to in hand. I also stitch the same way bottom left top right! Have a wonderful week and happy stitching 😊🪡🧵🤗🤩
Thank you so much for showing this tutorial! I think I am going to try doing that in the near future! You are awesome! Hope you have a great rest of the week!
Hi Cathy, I previously filmed a pin stitch video. I will post a link to it here: Flosstube Tutorial #4 - Pin Stitch ruclips.net/video/YpPfHSLd7zo/видео.html
I enjoyed this! I had watched about 3/4 of it before I realized you were stitching with your left hand (I’m a rightie). But it was easy to adapt the method to right hand stitching. Thank you, and that sampler is lovely. Maybe on my “wish list”!
This was very helpful - easy to see, and it just registered with me that you are a left-handed stitcher! (Like I am.) I prefer a single strand of floss, too; this means I need to convince myself that sometime soon I need to try 16/32 or 18/36 fabric. I find that with 2 strands on 14/28, I often need to railroad my top leg of each stitch. I've experimented a bit, and for me it seems very fiddly to combine sewing and railroading. Do you use those techniques together? I think this may be another hint to me that I need to go up in my fabric count on my next project. UPDATE: I just subscribed and when I went to your video list, I spotted your video on railroading. I haven't watched it yet, but I realize it's possible that you answered my question in it!
Thank you . Your Tutorial are the best and you explain it so well, I learned the pin stitch from watching your Tutorial.. I understand the sewing method this video helped understand it so much more, but I have such trouble with stitching in hand.. One thing you said I don't understand about stitching with a hoop or qsnap how you have to turn the fabric over everytime? I never turn my fabric over like that only time I turn my qsnap or hoop over is when I bury my thread if I don't use the ending pin stitch.
Hi Norma! Thanks for your kind words. About the Q-snap stitching, I was referring to the poke and snap method of stitching on a Q-snap. Does this explanation help?
@@mischievousstitches Hi thank you for you’re reply, I’m stitching with a qsnap right now with the so called poke and stab method 🤣 ( that term sounds awful to me it just cross stitching lol ) and only time I turn it over is at the end of my thread to bury it.
Hi Lorie, thank you so much. It is a very clear video. My question is if you do a sampler that has a larger piece of fabric how do you manage it when stitching in hand.?
I keep the fabric rolled in my right hand. If that becomes unmanageable, I will often flip the fabric and stitch inside down. The stitches will be in the same direction if done this way.
You're the second cross stitcher this week who has mentioned they start using a pin stitch. How do you do that? I've ended with a pin stitch before, but never knew you could start with one.
I did a video to explain the pin stitch several years ago. It explains beginning and ending with a pin stitch. I will list it here: Flosstube Tutorial #4 - Pin Stitch ruclips.net/video/YpPfHSLd7zo/видео.html

Hi Yvonne, I apologize that I couldn’t focus in closer. If you’re watching on your phone or pad you can zoom in to videos to see it closer. Maybe this could help?
This is SO helpful! Thank you so much for sharing. I’m going to try this. Your stitches are just lovely! 🩷
Thank you! I am happy that you found it helpful.
Thank you. Chris
You’re welcome!

You’re welcome! I am happy that you found the video helpful.
What a lovely stitch, you stitches are beautiful! Thank you for showing how you stitch in hand. I’ll try your method. 😊
Thank you Cheryl! Please let me know how it goes and if you have any questions.

You’re very welcome! Let me know how it goes.
Thank you Lorie! I am a left handed stitcher so it was nice to see the sewing method done by a left hander.
Nice to know another lefty stitcher.
Lefty here too!
Excellent video! Thank you so much for filming your sewing method! ❤
You’re welcome! I hope that you found it useful.
Thank you! I also switch from sewing method to poke and stab.😊Happy Stitching!
I stitch each piece in the way that is most comfortable to me. ❤️
Thank you for sharing your tutorial I stitch in had I tried the hoop but had to go back to in hand. I also stitch the same way bottom left top right!
Have a wonderful week and happy stitching 😊🪡🧵🤗🤩
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching!
Lorie thank you have a great week!

Becky, You’re very welcome. ❤️
Great tutorial! Thank you Lorie.
Thanks! You’re very welcome. ❤️
This is beautiful! 😀
Thank you!
Great video Lori! This is exactly how I stitch, except I am right handed.
Great minds stitch alike. 😁
Great video!
Thanks!
Thanks for the video! I have been thinking about trying the sewing method on my next project. You gave great instructions!❤️
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching and leaving a kind comment. ❤️
“No rules”…..I like it……
❤️
If I impose to many rules on myself, stitching becomes more like a chore, and less like a hobby.
Thank you for showing the sewing method. I still don't know what a pin stitch is. Could you show that sometime. Have a terrific week.

Thank you for such a wonderful tutorial. Do you stitch one leg of the stitch at a time when using variegated floss? Thanks!
Sometimes yes, and sometimes no. It depends on the project and the size of area that I am stitching.
Thanks so much!,
You’re welcome. ❤️

That is true. The terminology needs to improve. 😂

@@mischievousstitches Thanks. I'll watch it.
Also look at the tutorial for single thread loop start. I learned that a few weeks ago.
@@karrib121 Yes. I've been using the loop method a long time. It's nice when it can be used.
What is a pin stitch? I usually use the loop method.

I noticed you didn't tag your video as 'left-handed'. You might get a lot more views if you do. It might help with the algorithms
Thank you for the suggestion. I have updated the name and added a tag.
Nice video but need the camera closer. Just hearing instructions isn't enough.
