Please feel free to binge..:)
Your heart sounds so healthy
Thank you
Palestrina stitch is so pretty and haven’t seen it before! Thanks for sharing it and explain so nicely.
It's a beautiful stitch!
Beautiful 💕💕 embroidery
Thank you for showing
Wonderfully helpful thank you!! My grandfather taught me how to embroider as a child, but i'd forgotten.
I love to hear it when someone says a relative taught them embroidery, that it was your grandad is wonderful! It's like riding a bike, you never forget!
Thank you. 😊
Lovely your a great tutor sarah ❤
I love these “express” videos! Great when you just need a refresher 🌸
Absolutely wonderful tutorial, thank you for your kind sharing.
Thank you! Your video is so clear and helpful! Love the cable chain stitch!
Thank you. This is just awesome. Exactly what I needed for my quilt retreat lettered project.
Palestrina stitch is so pretty, I'm a cross stitcher but I do like to embroider my name and the date when I finish a piece, I'll definitely have to try Palestrina
As a man, I prefer the stem stitch. The others have varying degrees of ‘fanciness’, but the stem is clean simple and does the job.
Found it! It is in the “ free stuff”. Thanks
Thank you for sharing Sarah x
Your. Ideas are so helpful! Thank you! 😊
Thank you. This was very helpful.
Very..very..nice🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

I like Palestrina best! It looks very lovely to look at. Am gonna use it for my embroidery stitches for my face masks especially the letters. Nice and helpful tutorial! Looking forward to more!
Have a great day and stay safe.❤🎄
So beautiful work👌👍
Very nice!!
Thank you for your knowledge! I've learned so much from you. I used the Woven back stitch and the Palestrina stitch on a project I'm working on. Lovely.

Thank you! Must have missed it
Great video!
Thank you Sarah. I've been struggling with the Palestrina Stitch for a little while now. I should have thought to check out your videos first. :)
Glad it was helpful Rosemary!
I love this examples :)
Me gusta las puntadas de letras
Just used the Cable Chain Stitch to embroider My Nephew's first Initial onto is 3-6 month old 1sies
That's great! Glad you found the video useful!
Can you pretty please do a group sew along! Would love to do one and see others around the world.. Really enjoying the existing ones 😊
What's a group sew along Ant?!
@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery you set a task/project and we do it collectively...great way to develop skills and see individual interpretations on a theme. Would be good fun and really encouraging..especially good with easing of lockdown and the stresses that come with that!
damn! Your works deserve a lot more likes!! :o Lots of love from India ;)
Thank you Monica, we think so to! :)
Thank you for making this, it was helpful for me. Especially the waste knot technique I’m just starting with embroidering letters on tshirts and was searching up how to secure it without the knot and couldn’t find anything this was helpful thank you I also didn’t know exactly what to type when searching though..do you have a video on r shirt style embroidery? Stuff that will be washed over and over ?
Thanks again
I'm gonna use this to write Calvin Klein on all my clothes. Thanks!
Pathetic, get a grip!
Sarah thank u so so much for all of your wonderful videos. I now refer to you as “my teacher”!
You have a video where you show how to fill with satin stitch, keeping the angle. I can’t find it again. Would you please let me know where I can find it?
Thanks
Beatrice 🥰

There's also a technical guide to satin stitch on my free stuff page here if you want to know all about angles!

I’m new to embroidery and was wondering besides lettering what would you use the Palestrina stitch for? It’s so pretty and would love to start incorporating it..
It would make a good outline stitch Rachel as it's worked in a row and would easily turn around shapes. You could try working it in rows to as a filling stitch? I haven't tried it but thinking about it, it could also be worked as an individual stitch if you wanted to do an open filling with it. It's very versatile!
hello, and thank you for your lovely videos ! i've learned so much. am trying my hand at the cable chain stitch in a heavy metallic thread. it keeps jamming up as individual threads will slip in the bundle and create lumps and knots. do you have any tips to keep the threads together ? is thread wax recommended for metallics ? thanks in advance !
Check out my video on how to use metallic threads Scepellos!
@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery thank you, i will !
AWESOME !!! I did the cable chain on my embroidery bingo by jessica long embroidery last month ;) I have a question is the palestrina stitch the same as the dutch knot because they look the same ? ;) Thanks for sharing ;D
I don't knot what dutch knot stitch is D!
Hello! I really enjoyed the video; even a total newbie like me could follow!
One question: what's the thickness of the red thread you used for the couching? Guestimate says a millimeter and something, but I'm not sure.
Thank you ^^
It's the full siz strands Federico so that's about 1mm but you can use any amount you like!
@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery thank you ^^
I asked mostly to have a reference point, because that "big thread with little thread" combination is exactly what I needed (only in blue and white xD)
Can you please send me the link for the letters Thanks for such Beautiful embroidery 😘💗
Which fabric is best
Do you have a thick lettering tutorial I’m trying to make a Service dog patch and I am failing miserably😂
Have you tried any of the stitches in the second video '5 more stitches..'? Some of these are thicker. You can also just double up your threads if you want something more chunky..
Hello. What kind and thread count of cloth are you using in this video? Thanks.
It's a linen Twill Sara so it doesn't have a count as such. You can see it on our website here:
www.sarahhomfray.com/myshop/cat_1695131-Linen-fabric.html
Can you outline a letter with a pencil like you showed ? I want to do this for a bag.
See my video about pens and pencils for embroidery!
Dude it’s still hard for me to sew the letter M on my bfs hoodie
What are you having trouble with specifically Merari?

You never show how to end threads on the underside….in all your demos
Just weave the needle underneath a few stitches Miryom, check out the Egg project video

Your hand in the way is annoying.
