thanks for any tips and encouragement you can send my way.

I guess you should clarify if you're wanting to do it by hand or machine. I do it both ways. I have many different variations under my belt and have to say I don't enjoy needle turn by hand. I prefer the starch method by hand as it's much more precise. By machine, I hate invisible thread so use a blind hem stitch or satin stitch with coordinating cotton or embroidery thread.
