Technique - Hemstitch - Fabric Preparation

In this video, you work with a pair of fabric threads at a time. When you remove fabric threads: 1. cut on left of pattern first, remove the short piece. 2. unweave the longer piece just to the right hand side of pattern 3. pin fabric thread out of the way (parking) 4. cut on right of pattern, and remove short piece 5. unpin fabric thread, thread a 22 tapestry needle on that fabric thread and weave into the right margin of fabric. 6. unweave the longer piece left by the second cut 7. thread a 22 tapestry needle on that fabric thread, and weave into left margin of fabric. 8. cut ends even with edge of fabric.
