Chain Stitch Sampler

For the Hand Embroidery City & Guilds course I have been working on stitch samples.
I posted an earlier one -  the Isolated Stitch Sampler

This is a sampler for what I call a stitch family - The Chain Stitch Sampler
Again I used stranded cotton and perle threads on a cotton background.





Stitches used from top left corner to bottom right

Happy Stitching
