How To: Whipstitch Shapes & Points Tutorial

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

How To WhipStitch Shapes & Points The Basics - Whipstitch is such an essential part of wool applique. Before a single embellishment can be added we must properly whipstitch our shapes down, but some of these shapes, such as a leaf with a point, can cause problems. This video demonstrates how to do that as well as how to whipstitch circles and irregular shapes. Come with me and stitch along as we explore the whipstitch.

    Just finished my piece for the basics workshop and my stitches are utterly kindergarten! Watching this again gets me thinking I might restart my piece... Or just do another piece and decor my pitiful progress... Good job I just love this new addiction cos I am excited about getting better!

    This was quite helpful. I'm beginning my first every Sue Spargo BOM (my first ever wool applique project) and the first step is to whipstitch the set of wool pieces to the base. Watching your video of this basic stitch helped me get launched in the best way. Thanks!

    Ariane, thanks so much for your tutorials. They are really clear and so relaxing to watch. Am just venturing into wool applique and to be able to pick up the techniques from you is great. Have you done anything on creative layering?

    I'm so glad Debra. You can visit my website: arianezurcher.com/stitching-shop/ and see a couple of projects I've designed that use many of the stitches I've done KZread videos of. Making Waves: A Drawstring Bag uses just about every stitch I teach, but it is a bit advanced. Still if you want to practice, it's a great way to do so! ❤️

    Hi Debra, it really depends upon what I want to make. So, for example with my Making Waves Drawstring bag: arianezurcher.com/shop/stitching-patterns-and-designs/making-waves-downloadable-pdf-files-for-diy-drawstring-bag/ I used just about every stitch I teach on KZread and it's about 12" x 14" but then I designed this Variation on a Rice Sack: arianezurcher.com/shop/stitching-patterns-and-designs/a-variation-on-a-japanese-rice-sack-rock-gardens-a-diy-embroidered-bag/ which also uses a great many of the stitches I teach and it's 8" squares, and then this zippered pouch, also using a great many of the stitches I teach: arianezurcher.com/shop/stitching-patterns-and-designs/diy-linen-wool-fully-lined-zippered-pouch/ is about 8" x 5.5". So as I said above, it really depends upon what I am interested in doing with it, once it's finished. Hope this helps!

    Hello I just found your channel, your work is beautiful! I’m just beginning so I had a question. Would you whip stitch all of your pieces and then if you wanted to do a blanket stitch and then do a blanket stitch or would you just do a blanket stitch if you were doing a piece and not do a whip stitch? I see a lot of people doing wool appliqué that frame other pieces with a blanket stitch is why I’m asking so I’m just trying to understand the differences in when you would use a whip stitch versus a blanket stitch? Sorry if that sounds very simple. Just a beginner here. Can’t wait to see more videos, I did subscribe

    Hi Crystal - it’s a great question! Most people use one or the other. I like whipstitching because I can then use whatever stitches I like in addition. But typically people use the blanket stitch the way I’m using the whipstitching. ❤️

    Yes, unlike with appliqué fabric, these stitches show, but will disappear once the embellishment stitching begins.
