Tutorial for Whipped Running Stitch and French Knot

Whipped running stitch is so easy and so quick, you can use one colour for the running stitch and the whipping or contrasting for the whipping to great effect.
It is wonderful for following a line on any design, which you can draw with a vanishing pen, or lightly with a pencil onto your fabric. If you can follow a pattern with running stitch you can use this stitch to make it more defined and three dimensional.

Next week I will have a new download for you where you can use these stitches ....
