Japanese darning stitch video tutorial

Japanese darning stitch belongs to the family of running stitches. In this stitch, two parallel lines of running stitches are connected with diagonal stitches. Traditionally it is used for darning in sashiko and boro embroidery. In modern embroidery, a Japanese darning stitch can be used to fill big areas and creates a beautiful geometrical pattern. You can make this stitch in one color or add colors to your embroidery choosing different color threads for horizontal and vertical stitches.
