Sunday Stitch School - Lesson 91: Double Fly Stitch

If you can stitch a Fly Stitch, you can stitch two, and then you have a Double Fly Stitch!
Easy as pie! The 'cookbook'? Mary Thomas's Dictionary of Embroidery Stitches!

 Make the first Fly Stitch wide and with a short leg.


For impact, change to a thread with a different colour or weight.
Make the second Fly Stitch narrower and with a long leg.



Homework:
Add the Double Fly Stitch to the Aida Sampler, The Sunday Stitch School Reference Chart and the Teal Wool Tailoring Scribble Cloth.

    Simple and quick. Off to play with it and looking forward to how you use it.

    Layering stitches like this is a great way to create new patterns!
