From a series of handy hints and tips for silk ribbon embroidery to save and keep for your collection. You are most welcome to share with your students or friends.
I will be adding a new card every week until the series is complete.

Remember to use short lengths of ribbon - no longer than 30 cm or 12 inches. Always use a large enough needle so the ribbon does not scrunch up when you form a stitch. Use your left (or right if you are left-handed) thumb to hold the ribbon flat as you pull it to the back. Only let go once the stitch is almost completed. This prevents the ribbon from twisting.

Enjoy your weekend!
