    This is super super helpful. Target had a cheap embroidery kit today and I've been wanting to try it out. It sure isn't the best material but when I sat down to start I realized I had no idea what I was doing dispite being a crafter. 😅 sometimes I think I can just do everything.

      Simon Legrand you can use an iron on fabric for the backside to protect better when washing

    A bit late to this party. But do you have a video where you elaborate on the "away stitch"? Because I'm curious to see how you would continue working the embroidery with that stitch, and then how you end it off.

    With the away knot, if you put the knot on the front away from your pattern, how do you hide the knot later after you're done?
