Double Feather Stitch Video Tutorial

Variations to the feather stitch make it a versatile stitch for hand embroidery. Here's a video tutorial for the double feather stitch...

Like the feather stitch, the double feather stitch is used for foliage, sprigs, greenery, etc., in all types of general surface embroidery, and is especially good for Brazilian embroidery, ribbon embroidery, etc. It works great as a seam embellisment in crazy quilting, and as an edging or border stitch on other work.

On the following video, there isn't any sound! (Sorry!) The instructions are basically the same for this stitch as for the feather stitch. The difference with the double feather stitch is that you continue one more step to the left or right as you're working down your "feather."

Here's the video:
