One technique that you could use is discussed in this old thread:

How did you make the small segment that you cropped and placed. Is it a copy from an earlier state, or just something you made from scratch with the same settings?

How did you make that blue brush with the black stroke?

Check the Appearance panel. You need to have two strokes, black that is thicker, blue that is thinner.

It is a duplicate of the previous  curve. I just removed extra points that won’t be seen anyway

Thanks. I've never looked at the appearance panel before and never realized that a user could add more than one stroke or fill. I was trying to do something similar a couple days before you posted, so it was great that you posted when you did and I learned some new things.
