Drop embroidered with stem stitch filling stitches

Stem stitch filling video tutorial

The Stem stitch makes a rope-like line. How heavy the rope depends upon the thread you use. Stem stitch can be very delicate and can be used on the most delicate embroidery pieces. Or it can be bold. This stitch is very useful if you need to embroider curves, waves or little circles.  As the name of the stitch suggests, it’s widely used to embroider leaves and stems of the plants. Also, stem stitch can be used to fill an area, by working rows of stem stitch close together.
