N this collection of Em b roidery Stitches , I have eu

deavoured to place before those artists who are interestedin needlecraft an exposit ion of the most useful and artisticstitches that have formed a part of my own work during

several years’ study and practice of Art Embro idery . Some ofthese will be fami liar to Needle—artists ' others wi l l serve toexemplify how

,in process of working , fresh stitches may be

evolved from old ones or how,when originality gains ground

entirely new stitches become apparent and workable .

A point somewhat overlooked in Art Embroidery is the factthat each separate sti tch is a design in itself . I f this principlebe fully recognised

,the necessity for careful and systematic

study of the forms and functions of Embroidery Stitches willimmediately become obvious to the student and worker .Embroidery Stitches is planned with a 'i ew to facili tating

reference,and to affording immediate conception of the inti

mate connection between illustration and explanation . Toattain this end

,the i llust rations are placed in uniform spaces

throughout the volume,two on each page and in each case

the description appears opposite its corresponding design .

In this the arrangement differs from that of other Needleworkmanuals

,in affording that clearness

,sequence

,and finality

agreeable to the worker,which becomes impossible where

il lustrat ions are interspersed at irregular intervals in a continuous letterpress .

Every endeavour has been made to ensure simplicity andpoint in the directions and where possible in a book of thi ssize , suggestions have been given for the application of stitchesto useful purposes .

The alphabetical system of arrangement has been adopted,

as being most suitable for a book of reference .

In the comparatively few cases in which one stitch is knownby two names

,the design has been repeated under the different

headings,to maintain clearness and alphabetical sequence .

EMBROIDERY STITCHES

I . ANCHOR STITCH .

-This st itch is similar to

Horn stitch ,but with a longer middle portion . To

work,make two side stitches 'oined at the bottom '

make a Chain stitch covering the 'oining , fasten thisChain stitch down by means of a long overcast stit ch ,

taking the needle to the back of the work .

2 . ALGERIAN STITCH .

—A kind o f Cross st itch

somewhat akin to Cretan st itch,but worked on canvas

The stitch may either be worked very closely or openly .

Bring the needle to the right side of the work . Count

about five threads down,take up three threads . Cross

over to the top line,and continue in the same way .

(See Doub le Algerian stitch .)

EMBROIDERY STITCHES

3 . ALL- O'ER STITCH .

—A stroke st itch used to

work groundings where no particular pattern is desired .

—~A sti tch used in applique

work to attach one material to another— in reality a

kind of buttonholing,but beginning from the left hand

side , and worked towards the worker , whereas correct

buttonholing is worked away from the worker . The

latter stitch makes a knot,which Applique stitch

avoids . The stitch is necessari ly worked very closely

over the raw edge of the applique’ material,to avoid

fraying .

6 . BACK STITCH .—A neat stitch used to orna

ment linen or fine canvas . Bring the needle to the

surface of the material,insert i t two threads behind the

working thread,take up four threads forward

,bringing

the needle up two threads in front of the working thread .

Continue taking two threads behind and two before

the working thread,putting the needle each time into

the same hole as the last sti tch . The beauty of the

st itch depends upon its perfect regulari ty . I t is best

to draw a thread for a guide .

lines any distance apart and mark dots at even distances

on both lines . Bring the needle from the under to the

upper side of the material on the first dot on the lower

line . Cross over and insert in the third dot on the top

line,bringing it out on the corresponding dot on the

lower line . Put the needle into the second dot on the

top line,bring out on the second dot on the lower line ,

and cross over to four . Continue the pattern in

this way .

,or one each round and square .

Buttonholes should be worked accurately by a thread .

The corners contain seven st itches geometricallyarranged (see (a ) and To work a buttonhole

hold the work under the thumb with the edges awayfrom the worker . Begin by slipping the needle betweenthe edges

,bringing it out on the surface about four

or five threads in . Put the needle over the edge ofthe buttonhole to the under side

,insert i t again about

two threads from where it came out before . While sti l lin this posit ion

,throw the thread over the point of

the needle from left to right,forming a loop . Pull the

needle through,and draw up closely into a firm knot

at the edge of the buttonhole . Repeat,making all

st itches uniform .

22 . BUTTONHOLE STITCHES —Buttonhole stitch

may be arranged in many ways t o give variety in

ornamental edges . The il lustrations shew (a ) Dog

tooth buttonhole (b) Serrated buttonhole (c)Scal loped buttonhole '(d) Fringed buttonhole .

In the last example the w orking thread is passed over

a mesh after each stitch,giving uni form length to the

loops . A netting mesh,lead penc il

,ruler

,etc .

serve the purpose .

EMBROIDERY STITCHES

23 . BUTTONHOLE WITH CHAIN STITCH .

The buttonholing is worked first in small or large waves,

and the Chain stitch is added afterwards . The size

of the waves may be increased if desired , to adapt the

pattern to varying spaces (see a) .

24 . CABLE STITCH .

—A variety of Chain stitch,

but more intricate in the working . Bring the needle to

the surface,hold the thread down under the left thumb

pass the needle from left to right under the portion of

thread held down , as at Turn the needle round

perpendicularly with the loop of thread on it,as at

still holding down the thread . Reverse the needle,

as at insert i t in the last Chain stitch 'ust belowwhere the thread last came out

,and bring it out below

in position for the next st itch . Pull the loop tightly

round the head of the needle release the thumb,and

draw the needle through , keeping the thread as the

loop for a Chain stitch . This makes a series o f Chain

stitches connected by a small t ight loop .

a small stitch downwards then insert i t in the bottom

line and similarly take a small sti tch upwards . In
