Oh, dear. What do I do now? My fun little project is coming to a halt.
I have changed needles and more needles. I've changed thread and still the stippling is not going good. Can you see the skipped stitches and thread problems?
I'm now wondering if it's my batting. It's of unknown content and it has a very thin coating of something kinda like a plastic foam over it. I'm wondering if it is dulling my needle and making my thread shred. Now that I've come this far, what is left to do but pitch the project? Any suggestions?
