Posted - Apr 08 2010 : 8:16:19 PM Hello, Farmgirls! I want to do a little embroidery on my Carhart jacket and my Rosie's coveralls. This will probably be blanket stitch and maybe some simple, simple applique. I also want to embroider on some cotton duck, a not- very- heavy wt of canvas. I thought duck was heavier, but it does say duck on the bolt. I would probably do chain stitch/ stem stitch on the duck. It will be the pocket of a little backpack. What size needles would be best on each fabric? Carhart- Rosies- like a med/ heavy cotton broadcloth Duck- Med. wt canvas at heaviest
thank you! Mary LD
