The Videos

Through these modules we work through everything from how to thread a needle, to learning 7 different stitches, then discussing how you can practice what you have learnt. The videos are all separated out into 7 different topics. Whilst there is a lot of information, we recommend you take time to pause and replay the videos whilst you stitch. Once you get to grips with a stitch its like riding a bike, you won't forget it!
