HAND STITCHING SMOOTH CURVES

Hand embroidery TIP: I taught hand quilting for years, here's how to create smooth hand stitched curves.
Always remember, the change of direction is always made from the bottom to the top. Go down in line with your last stitch and come up where you want the line to go. The smaller the stitch (that means space between the stitch too) the easier it is to do.
Photos are from my current project with 1 strand of DMC Embroidery thread.
