Why this stitch is called Looped Blanket Stitch is a mystery to me. I can understand the name of Looped Stem Stitch...
Anyway, it is a beautiful stitch for roses and cupped flowers. Have a look at Fareeha's Embroidery For Beginners where there are photos and a video to teach you.
My photo tutorial is here:
Draw a circle on the fabric.
Work a Stem Stitch.
Leave a loop.
Work another Stem Stitch.
Remember to leave a good loop.
Aren't they beautiful?
When you have worked around the circle,
you can either stitch inside the cup....
until you have filled in the cup.
OR
you can work a circle on the outside
of the cup...
A bird in that nest might look good!

ReplyDeleteAs you say, Looped Stem Stitch sounds like a more understandable name!
