Pass the needle in and out of the fabric, making the surface stitches of equal length. The stitches on the underside should also be of equal length, but half the size or less than the upper stitches
This filling stitch is made up of small straight stitches of equal or different length placed at random over the surface.
Bring the thread out at the position, hold the thread down where it emerges with the left thumb and encircle the thread twice with the needle. Still holding the thread firmly with your thumb, twist the needle back to the starting point and insert it close to where the thread first emerged (not in the exact place or it will simply pull back through). Pull the needle through to the back, leaving a small knot on the surface, as shown, or pass on to the position of the next stitch.
Bring the thread up at the top of the line and hold it down with the left thumb. Insert the needle where it last emerged and bring the point out a short distance away. Pull the thread through, keeping the working thread under the needle point.
Detached chain stitch
Bring the thread through at A and, holding the thread down with the thumb, as shown, insert the needle again just a single thread away. Still holding the thread, bring the needle through at B. Pull the threat through gently to form a small loop, then insert the needle at C to form a small tying stitch over the loop.
Fly Stitch
Bring the thread through at the top left. Hold it down with the left thumb and insert the needle to the right on the same level, a little distance from where the thread first emerged. Take a small stitch downwards to the centre with the thread, as shown, to hold it in place. Bring the needle up again in position to work the next stitch
Couching
Lay down the thread to be couched, and with another thread catch it down with small stitches worked over the top
Back Stitch
Bring your thread to the front. Work your individual stitches from the right to left. Come up at A, take a small backward stitch, go down at B, and emerge at C. Always move the needle forward beneath the fabric and come up one stitch length ahead, ready to take another stitch. Make sure to keep your stitches even.
Blanket Stitches
Worked from left to right. The needle is brought up vertically and brought out of the fabric with the thread tucked under the needle
