Hi all
Hope all are doing well. Today I am happy to share with you a simple and new embroidery design that uses Holbein Stitch. Holbein Stitch is double running stitch.
Tutorial for Holbein stitch is here.
I have stitched a geometrical design that uses three colours on a dark blue colour poplin cotton. Now onto the design.
I have drawn the design on a 10 lines per inch graph paper. You can also stitch in even weave fabric such as aida.
Pattern for the design
Thread colours - Anchor embroidery floss
----------------------------------------------------------
Red - 6578
Cream - 300
Orange - 330
I used 3 strands for all the colours.
Back in 2013 I have done a lunch towel project using this stitch. You can view it here.
You can view other stitch tutorials and its designs here.
Tomorrow I will share the tutorial for Holbein stitch. I am also working on a neck pattern using this stitch. Once completed I will upload it.
molto bello il tuo ricamo a punto Holbein!
