How To – Fix stitches that avoid loops

General solution:

• Make around 6 stitches of app. 0.7 mm length from right to left (see the red stitches)
• Make a back stich and another one downwards over the first stitches 

If the objects ends in the start (complete shapes)

Especially if the embroidery is done on slippery elastic, or thick material (e.g. a satin stitch onto leather on foam) the first stiches will be pulled out again “on the way back” Here a running stitch with small stitches goes over the whole corner and starts in the middle of the corner, so that a big area is “dragged down”

In the following example, a stitching line has been placed over the entire start / end corner, so that the “pressed-down area is big enough and does not yield too much.
This stitch line should end in the start of the object and this should cover the stitching line directly (the yellow arrow indicates the starting direction of the cover stitches).
The following example shows a stepping line, that has been placed over the entire start / end corner, so that the “pressed-down area is big enough and does not yield too much. This stitch line should end at the start of the object and this should cover the stitching line directly (the yellow arrow indicates the starting direction of the cover stitches).
