Ribbon Stitch Tutorial Part 2

What do you think?  You see, even complicated looking stitches are just simple stitches worked together to create something unique.  It's just a matter of stitch placement and once you get over the fear factor, it's a blast!  
I'm not a big fan of creating a ton of appliques and then sewing them onto a project and then dealing with weaving in all the ends of said appliques.  Those are the projects that typically end up sitting in my WIP pile and I drag my feet for a year or 2 just to hide the ends so they stay tight.  I dread that process!!!  This technique of working the details into each row has been a game changer for me.  I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do!

Now, what are you waiting for?  Grab your hook and yarn and have some fun!
