The first in a new set of five stitches is a variation of the Herringbone Stitch. It is overstitched, or couched down, with Satin Stitch. As I have found no official name I will call it Satin Herringbone Stitch. Leave a comment if you know the real name, please.
I found it on You Tube, posted by Rose World.
First stitch a row of Herringbone Stitch.
I really like the look of this one. I look forward to seeing the next four in this series.
ReplyDeleteYour row of Herringbone Stitch looks like a variation of "Tied Herringbone". The tieing stitch is either straight stitch, like you have used or detached chain stitch. Samples I have seen are usually a double or large grid. Still looks good.
ReplyDeleteThis one is new to me, but I can see scope for variation in the satin stitches used for counting.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a pretty border stitch, I think it will look great in 2 different colours or threads too!
ReplyDeleteI have to make a new sampler block to try some of these on my CQ.
