Sewing holes in fur
« on: November 07, 2014, 07:10:40 PM »
What type of string do you guys to see your holes shut. Never did it and wanted to know if the time comes.

I use an outdoor sewing thread and a large curved needle.  Bought both at walmart .  The curved needle really helps in my opinion

I use a curved needle and either dental floss or a braided fishing line. Imo the baseball stitch is simple and fairly quick......it also holds up really well.
