I’ve been playing with stitches a lot in the last week, and I think I may have come up with a new one (yeah, yeah, there is nothing new under the sun!) so now I’ll need to see if I can find it in any books anywhere.<\/p>\n

What’s your favourite lesser known or lesser used stitch? There are some that most stitchers are familiar with, even if they’ve never used or mastered them. These might include back stitch, chain stitch, running stitch, satin stitch, blanket stitch, French knot, bullion knot…<\/p>\n

But then there are many that don’t get used so much. Many of them can be found in my left-<\/a> and right-handed<\/a> stitch dictionaries, but not all are! So what’s your favourite more unusual stitch? I’d be very happy for you to surprise me with something REALLY obscure!<\/p>\n

In using this lesser known stitch, what have you used it for? Was it on a sampler, or a project designed by someone else? Or did you find it in a book somewhere and decide to use it on an embroidery of your own making? Or something else?!<\/p>\n
