Hi all
Hope you all had a great weekend. Today I am here to share with you a new embroidery design using magic chain stitch. All of you familiar with chain stitch. You can view the chain stitch design here.
Magic chain stitch is similar to chain stitch but we have to use two color threads. In 2012 I have stitched a small design as a part of TAST. You can view it here. Now onto the design.

ReplyDeleteMagic Chain is a much loved stitch. You can also use two totally different threads in the needle, of different weight or texture. It is not easy but will give you a new dimension to this enchanting stitch.
ReplyDeleteYour designs are lovely, with a touch of zentangle.
The magic chain is just perfect for this pretty flower. Thanks for sharing the pattern.
