Gardening Can Be Murder
With their deadly plants, razor-sharp shears, shady corners, and ready-made burial sites, gardens make an ideal scene for a murder mystery. Join Marta McDowell, a writer, gardener, and avid mystery reader, in exploring the many ways in which writers-from Edgar Allen Poe and Willkie Collins to Agatha Christie and some of today’s top crime fiction authors-have found inspiration in the sinister side of gardening.

    Does it matter which way the stitches run (vertical or horizontal)?

  • @meganleemccann
    @meganleemccann 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have been stitching most of my life, and I must say this is one of the clearest, most thoughtful explanations of the technique you are showing. Well done!

    ❤ Thank you for taking the time to make an excellent video with good close-ups of your sewing. I hope you ignore any negative comments. What you are doing is a type of art. All that matters is that you like it. The rest of us can learn from you, and if someone wants to vary it somehow, such as with brighter colors, shorter stitches, varied stitches, or something else, you provided the initial idea so they could design it their way. I applaud your teaching methods and also recommending books that will give further instruction and ideas. 😊

    A tip Is say it just to bast the patch from inside and Sashiko with it or around it instead of leaving safety pins in

  • @AeriyaValkyrja
    @AeriyaValkyrja 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Running stitch is easier if you do it Sashiko way by running needle as far as you can into fabric then pulling the thread out instead out in and out

    I guess its ok. You need to look into mangchi, she is korean and does it a lot better!

  • @bawlingchicken1
    @bawlingchicken1 ปีที่แล้ว

    To ensure your mend is secure on the inside (I could see toes hitting threads and possibly undoing things over time), you could use a visible interfacing cut to encapsulate all raw edges. This would also help give support to the mend fabric (it looks like a quilting fabric which is quite thin compared to the sturdiness of denim). You just need to be sure you are able to keep the fabric flat while ironing.

    • @GrayslakeAreaPublicLibrary
      @GrayslakeAreaPublicLibrary 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sorry for such a late response, but yes! This type of visible stitching could be used on a pair of new jeans, with or without patches and holes.

    Or, since most jeans these days have stretch, use stretch fabric for the knees at least.

    Waxing the thread helps it not to knot and makes it stronger.
