unlocking the elegant flowering stitch # fly stitch

The earliest fragment of embroidered cloth includes cross stitch and dates back to the sixth or seventh centuries AD. It was found in a Coptic tomb in Upper Egypt, where it was preserved by the dry desert climate.
​Fly stitch consists of a straight stitch pulled down into a 'V' shape by an anchoring stitch. Elongating the anchoring stitch transforms the stitch into a 'Y' shape.
The satin stitch is a series of straight stitches placed next to each other. It is used as an embroidery fill stitch for small shapes on an embroidery project and gives a silky, satin look to the piece.
This beautiful technique, sometimes known as 'painting with a needle', uses a number of colours in cotton or silk threads, skilfully blended together to create the natural appearance of a flower, fruit, plant or animal.it is called double shade embroidery stitch.
