There's that pea hole hem again! I WANT TO LEARN THIS!!!! I'm getting close to finishing a table runner, and I'm not going to hem it until I can do that hem. It's such a beautiful touch.
Well, the hem on this piece doesn't have a peahole ornamentation -- it's a standard drawn thread hem just like Krista demonstrates on her video. The only difference is that I did a back stitch on the very edge -- which defines the edge a bit. I'm looking forward to seeing your table runner! Remember that the hem isn't the main attraction -- your embroidery is!
It is a big piece of material, Agapia, but it is not a complicated design. Listen to the excellent advice already given to you "take it slowly and one element at a time..." Maybe you have a friend or relative in your area that could help you get it started? Or if it seems too challenging for now, set it aside for now and come back to it later.
You’ll be fine and it will be a satisfying project! One stitch at a time is how we all do it. Follow a path that feels right to you. And enjoy watching the pattern come to life.
Oh my! This is LOVELY! A great start. I wasn't certain whether to do the red or the blue first. I think you have the right idea. Keep up the good work.

I just got my kit today and I am concerned I won’t figure it out
Please forward what you have to me also
It's a variation of drawn thread hem.
Hey Cindy--could you email me? I want to get the particulars of how you do this pea hole hem stitch as I'd like to do a how to video on it. Thanks!
Great start. I'm going to have to make one of these too. The hard part is deciding which one to do. I like the one you chose.
Hi Cindy. Here’s my progress on the Pascha basket cover 2021. I’m a little late ! Lol.
