  1. Great tutorial, Davinie! I just did a picture tutorial on the same topic over at 52 Sketches...52 Weeks. I use a very similar technique, but 6 strands instead of 3. I'll have to try 3 and see how I like it. Love your work!

  2. Thank you tons for this video. I am NOT a sewer but have been wanting to incorporate stitching into my L/Os. I appreciate how you explained this in a clear and easy way so I feel that even I can do this -- lol! I look forward to your tutorial on machine stitching. What sewing maching would you recommend to a novice wanna-be sewer like me who would be using it for crafty purposes only (not for sewing clothes, etc.)? Thanks again!

  3. I am with Bonnie and would love to know what type of machine to buy to use just for crafting. I haven't hand stitched before on my layouts so I look forward to giving it a try! Thanks for sharing the tutorial!

  6. Thanks for the great tutorial. I've been wanting to try sticthing but don't have a machine. For some reason, I never thought of doing it by hand. It's much easier than I thought!

  8. Great job! I love handstitching on my layouts but it's always so bulky on the back. I'll need to try your technique next time. :)

  11. I'm glad you did the tutorial, but I wish that the video was closer to the actual stitching. I love the commentary because even though I couldn't really see what you were doing, I do have a pretty good idea of how to do it.
