Sunday Stitch School -Lesson 367: Whipped Stem Stitch


 The name gives it all away! This week, we have a Stem Stitch that is whipped, so it is easy peasy.

My photo instructions can be found below, but if you want to see something in a book, go to Reader's Digest Complete Book of Embroidery or Sharon Boggon's Creative Stitches for Contemporary Embroidery (Volume 1). (Her second book, Volume 2, will soon be published and can be preordered. Check out Pintagle's website for details.)

Now for my photos:









Homework: 

This time it will be quick and easy, just add this simple stitch to the three samplers.

This stitch is very pretty, done with the two colors.

Good tutorial for a decorative, useful stitch.

It's a good way to add emphasis, or use a thread you don't want to stitch with ...

I have never seen it done with two colours. That looks so good!
