    ABOUT ME:
    Thanks for visiting my channel, I hope you enjoyed the video! I founded Caterpillar Cross Stitch in 2015 when I tried desperately for months to find a modern baby sampler my mum could stitch for new baby Felicity that would fit in with her simple, contemporary nursery. I love cross stitch, running, baking fruit cakes, drinking gin, eating salted caramel ice cream and most crafts!
    See you soon and happy stitching! Sally x

    Nicely done! I have to try your graduated space filling technique. It really makes sense. Thanks!

    I'm getting ready to start a new project and I think I want to use variegated thread. This was a great reminder of things NOT to do! LOL I'm sure I will save lots of time and frustration now that I've watched the video.

    • @SonovaStitch
      @SonovaStitch Před 8 měsíci

      Yes, please take my knowledge so you don't have to learn the hard way like I did! It took me three tries before I was happy with the result.

    Thank you for your tips on variegated floss. I learned a lot. I can’t wait to try them all out with the Quaker sampler I’m currently stitch in an overdyed blue floss. I just found your channel today, and what a great floss tube to watch as one of my first. I’ll be checking out more I’m sure. 💛🕊️

    I've been cross stitching for over 40 years , never liked varigated floss, never got good instructions but yours are terrific.

  • @Syklst58

    This was really helpful. My question is, what if you’re using 2 strands. Is everything the same?

  • @scurry_commander_alison2125

    Great ideas. Got my first varigated piece kitted up.

    I'm tempted to use variegated floss! I love the what not to do tips that are always provided.
    Why does Danish method use less floss waste than English method?
    Lastly, when you first started making these videos, you talked way too fast that I had to adjust playback speed to slow. I'm not sure if you practiced but now I can listen on regular playback speed! This is a huge compliment from me as I'm a fast talker and I find it hard to slow down!!!

    Great video. One question though, you mentioned we should not start with the loop method. How do we start then?

    • @SonovaStitch
      @SonovaStitch Před 8 měsíci

      Check out the recent video on the channel with different start methods. Either stitching over the tail or using the waste knot method should be fine!

  • @lisacampbell3218

    A pattern I have calls for variegated floss and says to use the Hildebrandt stitch and not sure what that stitch is.

    Loved the video, but please clean your fingernails next time, it was very distracting,and yucky

      They were unfortunately stained with wood stain at the time; no amount of scrubbing would do. Fortunately they've grown out since then. Sorry!
