I know it’s been SEVEN YEARS, but I reference this video as a “refresher”, as well as recommend it to others, quite often! Today is another one of those days! It is 09 Feb 2024! I am a crocheter mostly, but this stitch is used from time to time, but not often enough - FOR ME, personally, to feel completely confident. At any rate, I appreciate you STILL and thought I’d pop into the comments and say so, on the off chance y’all will see this! Thank you so very much - again! 😊 cheers! Lisa in Ohio ☺️🫶🏻🧶🪡🧵

I know this was 2 years ago, but I just wanted to leave a supportive comment (since the others aren't, really). It is so wonderful to hear of a father who wants to sew and do what he can for his family. I really hope you were able to keep this up! What you and your family can get out of sewing is so much better than anything store bought, or can enhance what was store bought (like new clothes for their dolls, or keeping existing clothing in good condition)! Keep up the good work

When I was little, I never liked this stitch, because it was always on felt or fleece and I didn't like the looks of those fabrics. Because of that, I never learned it. I realized recently that I could do it on ANY fabric, so i decided to come learn it. Thank you!

The only difference in my version would be the welding blanket type (3/8" thickness "felt" type welding blanket like I explained to you previously) and hand sewing the back seams.
