Want to fix a few stitches?

Draw, erase and fill single stitches, swap or merge colors, clean up strays, and check against your photo.

A good first project: a few colors and whole stitches only. Free to stitch for yourself, as a gift, or to sell the finished piece.

Stitching tip: The handle runs on a diagonal, two stitches wide. Count it one step at a time from the bristles up. The red band is a nice place for a metallic thread.
