I have this book and I really like it.
There is a book I bought on Amazon to help me with stitches. It taught me alot and I created a piece just on types of stitches.

This one is pre-printed in the fabric, but you can also use a transfer that irons on and washes out or a pen to draw on directly that washes out.
If you’re new I definitely recommend seeing what books your library offers on the subject, it helped me feel comfortable with the process before diving right in. I liked this book I borrowed from the library. It had great instructions and pictures which I found really helpful as a beginner as well as this.
Everyone already suggested backstitching the outline so i will say that i bought this book and find it very helpful. It has a section with a ton of different stitches and how to do them as well as some basic techniques.
Edit: looking again I would say that for satin stitching, if you get gaps between the threads it’s ok to go back and fill in more.
