Hi Everyone,
I’ve posted a new 2 part tutorial on how I did my hemstitch tucks.
How To Make Hemstitch Tucks Part 1
How to Make Hemstitch Tucks Part 2
It’s a very simple stitch but it can leave a big impact on your garment. It adds the perfect touch for boy garments when you can’t use lace and but still want to add a special touch as most moms and grandmas want to do.
I used it here on my grandson’s Baptism bubble since Dad insists on no lace. Dads will be dads, but I still had to stitch a little piece of my heart into the outfit. This worked perfectly. Both mom and dad were happy.
I’ve also used some of these techniques on a drawn thread collar for a preemie boy outfit, which will be coming shortly.
Here is a preview:
Playing With Threads
Once the threads are pulled and tucks are basted, the actual hemstitching goes very quickly. Give it a try and let me know how you like it!
