YLI Silk Thread Tutorial

September 24, 2011 2 Comments

Hello Everyone I found this tutorial on u tube and thought you might be interested. It is so frustrating to have your thread unravel out of the needle when you are busy sewing. I hope you enjoy this u tube clip. I also have another way of securing your thread to prevent this happening, I will be demonstrating this for those of you coming to our Sew In Day in 15th October. Happy Stitching Sharon

Thanks Sharon!
I did enjoy it. I love to stitching and knitting but just the basic. I want to know some styles and designs. Could you put some videos of your demonstrations? I would appreciate it much. Keep it up!
