Back Stitched Chain Stitch is also known as

About Back Stitched Chain Stitch
This is an interesting variation of chain stitch which incorporated Back Stitch as well. It can be used beautifully to create an interest in the designs over a foundation of the Chain Stitch. This is a fine example of how two different stitches can be combined to create a different effect.
How to do the Back Stitched Chain Stitch
You need to know Chain Stitch and Back Stitch to be able to continue this tutorial.

Sarah has been researching and sharing hand embroidery lessons for over 17 years, making it accessible to everyone around the globe.
How goes the e-book? Will it be ready soon?
Love your tutorials!!
Thanks Judy for all your comments.
As much as I want the E book to be over as soon as possible, it is going kind of slow.
My husband is the technical guy behind it. He is a busy scientist and last year had been pretty hectic for him.
So, yes, we hope it gets done before this year ends!
I feel really apologetic to keep many of our interested learners waiting for it.
Hi Sarah,i discover your web in pinterest and i really enjoy this web. As a beginner for stitching i found your web are very-very helpful…
Anna

Hi. Not sure if someone else has brought this to your notice. Looks like, this site (http://www.duitang.com/people/mblog/19374527/detail/) has indulged into plagiarism… They have been “stealing” works of many people & putting it up under their “banner”… Worst part is, they have simply cropped your watermark & put their own. Well! Don’t know how you can sort it out. Not sure if they have taken permission. If “YES”, then ignore this. If “NO”, then you know what to do & should do the needful! They have royally been publishing quite a lot of stuff literally picked from other sources. Since its an unknown language, not sure if due credit is given… I doubt, as it displays some other watermark. Good luck!
Your well wisher!
Dear Ana, thanks for the message. We have noticed several such chinese websites using our stitches and embroideries as their own. It has been a difficult task to go after each of them… We’ve taken down several youtube videos which used our images wihout permission. Meanwhile, we’ve left out educational websites which keeps the watermark/copyright label. Let’s see! Thanks again 🙂

Hello,
Would it be possible to change the settings for your submenu’s? When i click stiches, it opens a menu but it closes to fast to be able to tap the needed subject. It would be better if the submenu’s would stay open until you click the wanted subject.
Greetings, jolien

The best of luck to you and your family.

Namaste Linda.
Thanks for writing. It is always a delight to know that you enjoyed the sashiko lessons and waiting for more lessons. 🙂

Hi Varalakshmi,
Yes, the mirror work is long overdue. I am stuck with a project right now, and for almost a year I have not really updated any new embroidery styles. Give me some more time, and I would want to focus on posting mirror work tutorials and projects.

I wish to learn hand embroidery and this site was recommended to be by Jennifer Olfenstien (sp)…Do you have a beginner page? Like which needles to use, what thread, how many threads,etc. I need to perfect my stitches because I test blocks and a lot of them require embroidery, I taught myself. I do the stick and jab method. Thanks for any help!
Hi Jo,
Sorry, I do not have a beginner page yet. I must get it done! Since I am stuck with some other work for a couple of months, I wont be making any new pages any time soon. But, the moment I am able to, the beginner page is what I would want to work on.
How do I find info on your e-book?
The eBook is still work in progress, will announce once it is done.
Here i have used chain stich
really pretty! Thanks for sharing.
Hey Sarah! Amazing efforts by you in compiling so many stitching techniques in such an illustrative and easy way. Great website. Very helpful. I would be eagerly waiting for more.
Great site! I would like to buy the e-book, but could not see how to do so.
The e book is still in process of making. Will let you know once done. 🙂
Glad to hear your eBook is still in the works. I have been monitoring your site for the completed book and now know not to give up hope.
Thanks for your clear instructions. They have been a great resource for me as I learn to embroider.
Thanks Nicki for showing patience. Our book is definitely on the way. Facing some technical issues at the moment, thus the delay.
Really it was useful and easily understandable thank u so much
This is a pretty neat website for those who are new to embroidery. I am pretty sure my wife will enjoy it as she has been trying figure out how to make a scarf for our 5 year old son. I f you happen to have more in depth techniques please send me a link so that I can share with her.

Dear Sarah
I was wanting to use your site to send some of our friends too, however I cannot get Norton to approve the site. have you had any problems here with attacks. Norton said a known attack attached to sight and it blocked the attack?
Darlene, I checked at norton and it gave 100% safe remark.
https://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=embroidery.rocksea.org
I have looked long and hard and your website is one of the best for giving clear, simple instructions for embroidery stitches. I notice that you have waited a long time between posts. Please don’t give up your instruction. This site is a great resource.
Thanks Rebecca.
Many times, I get held up in some other engagements. I have a very young family and it becomes impossible either by way of time or energy to work on this site regularly, how much ever I honestly would love to. 🙂
I know my next post is way over due… will post something next week. Thanks for reminding.
Great creativity of stitching, Keep posting like this.
Hi..u r doing an awesome job..please let me know what is the size of the needle that you use? while doing the embroidery, are you working with three stands of thread or all the six stands of anchor thread?
Your work is beautiful. Do you give classes.. Private or group?
Where are you located?
hi
I sm archana. ur embrodiery is amzing.I like it. I also learn stitches.
Great creativity of stitching, Keep posting like this.
Your link at the top right for subscribing to your page is not working and I would so much like to stay in touch!
Thank you for your brilliant site!
I started back into embroidery after learning at school many years ago and I am learning new stitches.
You have given a nice explanation with images on back stitching. I like to read the blogs with images as it helps to understand the things easily. You have made a small but creative design.
It looks like friendship band.
