TIPS AND TRICKS

-

To hide the thread tail of your

invisible stitch, first secure the

end with a few small, overlappin­g stitches. Then, bring the needle down through the seam and into

the stuffed area, then out again

through the back of the bauble.

Press the bauble slightly flat and

pull the thread taut. Then, cut the thread close to fabric. When you

release the bauble, the stuffing

will expand and the end of your thread will be concealed within.

To bring an extra festive touch to your baubles, add some whole cloves or beads scented with

winter spice when stuffing.
