Sunday Stitch School - Lesson 339: All-Over Stitch

Through an article by Mary Corbet of Needle 'n Thread I got to know 'Embroidery Stitches' by Mary Wilkinson. Among the many stitches in this old book I found All-Over Stitch on page 4.

I thought we would use this filling stitch for today's lesson. The result will be something like a broken mirror or a window pane.

Here is Queenie's photo tutorial:

Draw the outline to be filled.


Draw the individual straight stitch lines.


Use Straight Stitch or Back Stitch to fill in the lines.




Homework:

Break a window pane here!

All Over Stitch now that's a fun stitch. 'Break a window pane here!' that's funny. And it could be a unique filler.
