As you might guess, it is the stitch found on the satin edging of a blanket, and very easy to do. I drew the graphic for to mechanic to this embroidery, 3 easy steps and then repeat.....
Be aware and well informed, the blanket stitch uses twice the amount the plain running stitch would. Buy a lot of your colors! My bags are quart size.
Once done....it becomes a real asset to the piece.
Alright, I found my thread at a yard sale. C&G Design
Very easy instructions! I actually get it!

ReplyDeleteThat looks really pretty. Embroidery is on my list of things I want to learn to do.
ReplyDeleteI got all of my yarn that I've been working with at either Goodwill or Salvation Army a few years ago. I'm sure I'll get through it all eventually, but isn't that just the best way to buy some of that stuff?
Hi guys, I went out to look at a van today....full size and JOATS doesn't want full size, oh well.
ReplyDeleteTina, I tried to make the instruction easy, I should of photoed the back of the work, the stitch has a spoke like pattern on the back.
Lola, this is a beautiful stitch and so functional.
Hi Mom, warm tomorrow, thank goodness.
