I love the stitches demonstrations! I did embroidery as a young person and got away from it when I started my family 35 years ago. Just getting back into it and it's great to see the stitches you show that I have not used and to see how I can do the familiar ones better. I made 12 flour sack towels as gifts for Christmas and everyone loves them. My girls (ages 11 to 37) want to learn how to do it which is such a joy to me! I'll show them your web site. Thank you for such great ideas!

I have been looking for your recommendation for which number of strands is best for which stitch and I am not finding it. Do you have a list? I love your sight and with this pandemic am really looking towards a lot of embroidery gifts for family and friends. Thank you

There's no right or wrong when it comes to number of strands. If you want a thicker line you use more. I try to work in 6, 3, or 2 strands, that way I'm not leftover with a weird amount. 3 is my favorite! I only use 1 strand if I need to make a super thin line. I always use 6 for woven wheels unless the flower is really really tiny (like on a piece of jewelry.) I hope that helps! Most patterns will tell you how many strands to use.
