The Tree StitchThe Tree Stitch is a stitch used in working small branches or in representing the roughened bark of trees in Natural Needlework. Click on picture to see more detail. To Work: Bring the needle to the upper surface of the material. Take up as much as desirable on the needle (as for Bullion stitch); bring the point of the needle out where the thread is (a). Draw the needle through, and work along the line with a slight stitch as in backward seaming, taking the needle through the material and keeping the thread as uneven as possible to give a roughened appearance (b). Groups of lines worked close together represent bark. Return to top of Tree Stitch page. Return to Embroidery Stitches page. Return to Home page. |
