Magic Chain Stitch - Tutorial

 Hi all

Hope all of you like yesterday's design for Magic chain Stitch. Today I am happy to share with you the tutorial for doing magic chain stitch.  This stitch uses two colors.  The number of  strands for both the colors should be the same.   You can use contrast colours or different shades of the same color.  Both the way it will be beautiful. 

Let's look into the tutorial.

Hope the tutorial is clear.  Try your hands in doing magic chain stitch and let me know in the comments section.   Tomorrow I will be back with two crochet pieces which I have crocheted sometime back.  

Embroidery Design - Magic Chain Stitch

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.
