Keep in mind that the size of the stitch in the video is zoomed in so that you can see. The size of the first stitch she is taking is the size of the knot so that when several are done in a row, the knots are right next to each other. That is what gives this stitch the wonderful raised line. If you want to see some in person, the Eudora Quilt Shop is doing lots of this. They have a class you can take, but they have samples all over the shop. I think it would help you to see the finished product in person.
Just dont be temped by all the wonderful fabric in that shop. ( They have a big sale coming up soon too). No, I dont work there nor am I affiliated.. they just cater to what I like to do.. applique and embroidery.
Let me know if you are going to go, Ill meet you there.
Awesome idea to visit the quilt shop! I stopped at the Eudora Quilt Shop last summer on my way to The Barn Bed and Breakfast in Valley Falls, KS. I was surprised to see how close Eudora is to Overland Park, KS. The ladies in that shop were so nice. I decided I was going to stay away from there this summer when I go to our quilting retreat because I spent too much there before, but I may have to rethink and reroute my journey.
