More Hints and Tips ... * When filling a very small shape trim the yarn ends very close to the fabric. This will make it much easier to tuck the ends in. * When tracing your design onto the front layer of fabric for Shadow Trapunto make sure you only use an HB lead pencil with a slightly rounded lead. Do not press too hard onto the fabric, just hard enough for you to see the outline to stitch around. * Don't forget to get a Practice Block with your order so you can fine tune your design before you start your favourite pattern. For full details see "Hints and Tips" at the end of the "Large Kits and Patterns" page.
