There are a number of different types of embroidery stitches that you can use for your embroidery project. Here is a look at how to do embroidery stitches for all of your embroidery needs. Be sure to use these guidelines so that you can be more effective with any embroidery job. These guidelines can help you to work with different types of stitches too.

First you will need to be sure that the thread that you have for the job is fitting right through the needle. A good embroidery thread will be one that can work with a standard type of small needle. You should be sure that the thread that is being used will be one that can lock into the needle and will not slip out.

After this is do you will need to get the needle to move through the fabric that the pattern will be created on. To do this you should work by moving the needle underneath the visible surface that you will be using. After you get the stitch out you should move the needle back into an area that is located near the original entry point so the thread will be in a secure spot.


In a typical type of stitch you will have to work from left to right with the needle always going right over the run thread and coming out right under it. This type of stitch is one that is known as a straight stem stitch and can be very appealing in its design.

Another type of stitch that you can use is the blanket stitch. This is where you will go and hold the working thread down with your right thumb and then handle the thread by bringing it up into the visible side right over your working thread. This is a process that is used to help with making it easy for you to keep a stitch tight.

A sloping stem stitch can also be used. This stitch creates the appearance on a line that is slanted. This is where the entry points will have to be handled in a slanting manner and not straight through the fabric.

A cross stitch can also be done. This is a type of stitch that works in that a series of diagonal stitches that move from one spot to another can be found. This works in that you will create a crisscrossing pattern on the fabric and then go back into the opposite direction to create another pattern like this. When the process is completed you will be able to get a line that looks like a series of Xs created onto the back part of your fabric so that a deeper line that does not have many gaps in it can be found in the visible area.


The process for making embroidery stitches is a good process for you to use. With this you will be able to get the best stitches created as well as to work with different types of patterns.
