Feather Stitch Video Tutorial
The feather stitch is an easy stitch for hand embroidery. It's worked vertically, from top to bottom in a kind of back-and-forth, right-and-left motion.
You can use the feather stitch in hand embroidery for edges and borders, it's used often in crazy quilting as a seam embellishment, and it also makes a good foundation of foliage or stems in flower designs, in Brazilian embroidery, etc.

Great videos! I am an embroidery newbie going to be making my first crazy quilt. I've done about a dozen or so other quilts but never a cq. Your videos will help a great deal when I get to that point. Thank you so much for posting them.
Hi :-)
Thankyou so much for the demonstration.
I have Dillmonte's encyclopadia, and I love her designs - and a few more basic books - but I was just going nuts last night trying to figure out the feather stitch .....
