    This short video about basting stitch is very helpful. I want to thank you for sharing all your patterns, I have used the fingerless gloves, the hobo bag, satin flower and heart hair clips and my favorite one, the mini top hat. I really enjoy your web page and find it very informative and useful. Keep up the great work!
