I had a lot of trouble with the tight turns and lots of puckering of the fabric as you can see. Was hoping for some help or links to good tutorials on this sort of stitching. Thanks in advance for helping.
I have been practicing and working on the Satin Stitch using all of the advice I was given here.. I feel I am proficient in using the Satin Stitch. What helped the most was first of all using a stablizer... I tried several that were suggested but with all the practicing I needed to do .. I used mostly coffee filters and they worked just fine for me. Here is a picture of my goal..which was to Satin Stitch around this Dragon. Thank you all again for all your help.
