Synopsis
Excerpt from Manual of Needlework: Teaching How to Do Kensington, Applique, Cretonne, Roman, Cross-Stitch, Outline and Other Embroideries
It will be seen by reference to the cuts 1 and 2, that the needle should pass through just at the edge of the top thread, coming out just under the lower line or thread, while the cotton is held by the left thumb a little to the right of where the needle is to come through, so that as the needle and thread is drawn up, a loop is formed which fastens itself.
Satin Stitch.
All leaves and flowers, both in cotton and silk embroidery are worked in this stitch.
