Sweetheart Rose Tutorial & Tips
Also known as the combination Colonial Knot Running Stitch Rose or Fargo Rose.
- My hand positioning is what works for me, it may not work for everyone so try out different things and find what works for you.
- Keep practicing, at first it can feel "all thumbs" but after doing so many you get a feel for how to do them.
- Be careful not to stab yourself, go slowly and gently, if you start to get frustrated take a break and come back to it later.
- If you have trouble learning with 4mm silk ribbon try using 7mm, the running stitches will be a little further apart and it might seem easier to handle.

Great tutorial, thanks!
Thank you for the tutorial, I have not done this rose before, so I will be giving it a go.
Great video and your work is so lovely... Thanks for sharing
first Its a great site. Very informative. Thanks.
I am having difficulty in pulling the ribbon through the fabric and I use a satin ribbon. any Comment on that. my mail is crv2008@rediffmail.com
Hi,
I have not used satin ribbon for this rose, I would think it would be too difficult since satin ribbon is a lot thicker than silk ribbon and it's a combination stitch of a knot and running stitches back on the ribbon to form the rose. My suggestion would be to find a source to buy silk ribbon from.
