    This is amazing. I didn’t even know this was 18th century stitching~ I’ve always stitched like this since for me it’s easier. Love your channel! 🤍

    I have used this stitch before. Never knew it had a name. Love your videos. Now I want to make a garment and sew it all by hand instead of use my sewing machine. I learned a new word, 'perpendicular'.👍🏿

    This is probably my favorite seaming technique! I use it regularly for English Paper/Mosaic Piecing.

    Wow! So beautiful-- on the inside and outside of the hand sewn project. I'd like using the contrasting thread color for some projects as well.

    could you make this stronger by using a blanket stitch?

    • @sewncompany
      @sewncompany  2 роки тому +1

      I don’t think I would do a blanket stitch for this specific seam because the goal is for it to lay flat and be somewhat seamless. The blanket stitch would give more bulk where bulk isn’t really needed. Each stitch is laid so closely together with us that it ends up being a very strong seam as is. If you were interested to add a non-historical decoration on the face of the seam you could do a blanket stitch because it was lay in the yarn running alongside it. It could be an interesting experiment!

    Is this the stitch you would use for quilting?

    • @sewncompany
      @sewncompany  3 роки тому +2

      You can use the stitch to piece together fabric to make a larger section of fabric. And then you can use a quilting stitch (which is a Running Stitch) to sew all the layers together. I have a running stitch tutorial on this channel if you need that too!

    I'm getting lost in stitches. So is a whip stich the same as slip stitch? I've seen a blind hem stitch being called a slip stitch? But the one you're showing is not completely invisible (I don't mind that, but I'd like to know if there's a possibility) 😃.

    • @sewncompany
      @sewncompany  Рік тому

      Thanks for your question! It gets confusing because different people use different terms. The way I define it is a slip-stitch is used for a blind hem. This whipstitch a show is different and is more visible. They are two different stitches that are generally used for different applications. A whipstitch is good for joining two pieces of fabric, a slip-stitch is good for hemming or appliqué.

    • @barefacedquestions

      @@sewncompany That makes sense. So a slip stitch is more suitable for hemming pants if the wearer doesn't want it to be too obvious?
