I used back stitch, but it helps if it is very neat and small. I also found that with fabric that frayed easily it was worth dabbing the raw edges with pva glue to seal them (and letting it dry) before turning the bird right side out - particularly round the beak area!<BR/><BR/>Hope that's useful.

So I personally have not made one of these guys yet. And I'm not a great sewer by any means! I guess I'd try a backstitch, and keep them fairly small. <BR/><BR/>Somebody else who sews a lot, help us out!Jessica Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10111703670084066670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556794318856646559.post-68383518761853151442008-06-19T12:07:00.000-05:002008-06-19T12:07:00.000-05:00Help!

I need an expert's opinion on these birds!<BR/><BR/>They're so darling that I printed off the pattern and cut 12 out of scraps before I remembered that I'm not very good at hand stitching. (And even if I thought I could use my machine on this project, which I can't imagine, it's broken right now.)<BR/><BR/>I tried sewing the first one, and it turned out... well, less than pretty. I think I used the wrong type of stitch. All I've ever used for hand stitching (which I avoid like the plague most of the time) is the running stitch or overcast for hems. I used running and it didn't work well. Should I have used backstitch? Your stuff always looks so beautiful, and I've been lurking for quite a while, and now I want to know how you got yours to look so pretty! I'm jealous!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the links to the cool projects!
