Embroidery Stitches 1. Satin Stitch: Bring needle up at 1, down at 2, then back up right next to 1 and

down right next to 2. Place stitches closely together to fill in area. Be sure the thread lays flat and without any twisting to produce a smooth look. 2. Ladder Stitch: The Ladder Stitch is used to attach separate parts as a doll’s head. It’s called the ladder stitch because the stitches look like a ladder until you put the stitches tight close the seam. Pull every four or five stitches as you stitch. When the thread is tightened, the stitches should be virtually invisible. 3. Appliqué Stitch: Stitching a felt piece onto a felt surface. Place the appliqué on the background felt. Make tiny stitches perpendicular to the edge of the appliqué. 4. Overcast Stitch: Simple stitch over the edge of the felt. This stitch is used to attach two pieces of felt. Make the stitches small and neat. 5. Straight Stitch: Use a simple straight stitch to create a motif. 6. Back Stitch: Work from right to left. Bring needle up at 1 and back down at 2. Move left and bring needle up at 3, then back down at 1. Continue stitching. 7. Blanket Stitch: Work from left to right. Bring needle up at 1, down at 2 and up at 3, keeping the thread looped under the needle. Pull thread through and shape stitch as desired. Repeat multiple stitches until complete. 8. French Knot: Bring the needle up at the point at which you want to make your French knot,hold the thread and wrap it around the needle twice, as shown. Bring the needle back to the starting point and put the point back through the fabric very near where it emerged (be careful not use the same exact hole). Pull the needle to the back of the felt and pull out. To make a bigger knot, wrap more twists of thread around the needle and/or use more strands of floss in your needle.

Felt

Cut

Cut out the template, and attach it to the felt using tape. Cut over the tape. Remove the paper. ( I like to use masking tape).

How to avoid ribbon from fraying

Dip the nail polish brush into the nail polish. Wipe the brush on the top of the bottle to remove excess polish. Apply a thin layer to the edges of the ribbon. Pick it up and hold it to ensure it does not adhere to a surface. Try not to apply it in a thick coat or past the edge, it can make the ribbon look dark and wet if applied too heavily.
