Sunday Stitch School - Revision: Stitches 221 - 225

Recently Sunbonnet Sue was gardening. Now it is time for her to illustrate another summery of five stitches, namely:

221 Sarah's Triple Chain Stitch (click the title to see instructions)

A fancy way of using 3 x Chain Stitch!



222 Detached Chevron Stitch

When the Chevron Stitch is done as an individual stitch it looks rather different - and striking.


223 Whipped Fly Stitch Wheel

A Whipped Wheel based on the Fly Stitch will give you this decorative emblem-like stitch.


224 Guilloche Stitch

Stem Stitch + Threaded Satin Stitch + French Knot = Guilloche Stitch!



225 Overlaid Threaded Chain Stitch

This is easy, fast and attractive. Your tricky threads can come out to play, especially if the loops in your  Chain Stitch base are large.



Homework:

Make a scene with Sunbonnet Sue to showcase these five stitches.

The 3 x chain stitch looks very effective.

I wonder what Sue will be doing next?

I think it's a challenge to combine these stitches, but I'm sure you will make a pretty Sue!
