When sewing or embroidering, various stitches are used to create and decorate your work. Each of them is an art that is worth learning.
Decorative and finishing seams are designed to create a pattern, decorate, and connect parts in a special way. Videos of their implementation seem incredibly complex, but it is worth trying, because the result is irresistible.





Types of seams

Seams can be:

  • Simple;
  • Looped;
  • Embroidery.

Simple seams Similar types are used to join parts and when they are visible on the finished product.
The forward stitch is the simplest stitch, the needle goes forward, leaving behind a straight line of thread.
Backstitch.The needle goes further than the point where the thread comes out from the wrong side. The stitch on the outside goes in the direction opposite to the direction of the seam. The result is a convex thin seam, double on the wrong side.

. The technology is exactly the same as in the previous one,Only the stitch goes to the front side at about the middle of the height of the previous one. Face stitches are long, like lying on each other, purl - also inclined, but short.
The zigzag stitch is made using the back-to-needle technique, but the entry to the wrong side is made alternately on two levels.
The corner seam is made in the same way as the previous one,However, here the stitches are repeated twice, which is why the result is voluminous. By passing through two different heights, triangles are formed.
Lining eight. They are formed from two parallel lines of stitches. They are performed forward, but with a transition in height. From the back side we get schematic eights.

Both machine and manual, they are simply necessary for sewing parts, details and parts of a product.
Looped
Chain stitchDecorative stitches of this type are formed thanks to convex loops. The loops cling to each other, to the working thread or to the base in various ways, forming various patterns.

. The loop is sewn, the ends of which are locatedclose to each other. On the back side we stretch the thread to the edge of the loop, pull the thread out and form the next loop. As a result, we obtain wide decorative seams from the loops emerging from each other.

Loop stitchTo create decorative elements, decorative stitches are used:

  • a loop;
  • Half loop;
  • The eight on a platform;
  • All kinds of stitches.

The seam loop consists of separately lying largeLoops. The entry and exit points of the thread are located side by side. The body of the loop is attached to the base. The hinges are empty and can be positioned as required. With the help of such loops it is possible to form various drawings.

Half Loop StitchThe half loop stitch is created from a semicircle of a loop. To do this, the entry and exit points are spaced apart to the desired width. What remains is half a loop, attached with a cross stitch.
If
the vestibule is made in the form of a closed circle, thencross eights can be formed in the centers of the loops. It is carried out like a backing eight with the difference that the eights are carried out on the front side.
Palestrine loop stitch.First, a long slanted stitch is made, after which a loop is wound around the bottom. The second loop is wound around the top. The thread goes to the wrong side and the next slanted stitch is made at the same height as the previous one.

The Palestrina stitch is another subtype of the loop stitch.seams is a rare loop stitch. The needle passes from top to bottom, coming out on the front side just above the lying loop. Each subsequent stitch holds the previous one.
The thorn seam is made in the same way as the previous one.With the difference that the needle is inserted from different sides of the already created loop, creating stitches in different directions from it. Such thorns can consist of two, three or more stitches. If there are many of them, the thorns become similar to stars or snowflakes. If you do it in 4 stitches and connect the stitches of adjacent thorns, you will get a pattern in the form of a row of diamonds, such a seam is called a diamond.
The knot stitch is made by overlapping the workingthreads around the needle. The needle comes out on the front side and goes back almost at the same point, leaving behind a twisted bunch of thread. These types look like a series of knots, hence the name.
Rococo stitch.The needle makes a small stitch from the back side, remaining in the fabric. Several turns of thread are wound around the tip of the needle. The working thread is pulled through these turns. A second pass of the thread through the turns with a passage through the back secures the stitch.
The loop seam with the flooring is performed in 2 stages.The first stage is to embroider 2 parallel stripes of the base. The embroidery is done using the back needle method. There should be no gaps between the seams. The second stage is to lay the loops perpendicular to the stripes. The needle goes along the back side, coming out under the base lines and securing the loop of the previous stitches. We get a convex strip of decorative trim.

Counting seams

With counting embroidery types of seams are not so diverse. The main type of embroidery when the account is a cross, hence the types of stitches:

  • Cross vertically;
  • Cross diagonally;
  • Cross horizontally.

The formation of these embroidery sutures is done in the process of embroidery and depends on the direction of the crosses.

Vertical cross stitch
Diagonal cross stitch
Horizontal cross stitch This type also includes square and painted stitches. Both are made with elements forward of the needle, and the pattern is formed after a double pass over one place.

For smoothing decorative seams are most characteristic and many looped seams can also be considered as elements
.
A simple double-sided satin stitch, when the needle constantly comes out on the front side from one side of the design. With this type of embroidery, the same design is formed on both the front and back sides.
With satin stitch with overlay, the outline is first embroidered, then it is filled with stitches, and only then the outline is filled along them. The lower and upper layers must be perpendicular.
Filling embroidery figures with satin stitch cango through long and short stitches, and they lie in the same direction. If you change the length of the stitches in the rows and embroider different rows with different colors, you will get a stitch with a pouring of colors.

Can serve to fill the shape they have formed, first closes the contour. It looks like a solid, bright element.
Scallops and satin stitch are done in the same way,as well as a loop stitch with a base. For scallops, the base is first embroidered with a discontinuous stitch forward with the needle in the form of semicircles. For the roller, 2 free threads are taken, laid out according to the pattern. In both cases, the top layer is made with loops that are secured to each other. Such decorative stitches are often used to decorate tablecloths and napkins.
The most common method of satin stitch embroidery isdarning. A row of parallel stitches is made, then the direction is changed to perpendicular and each of them is woven between the existing ones, as in fabric.

  • Fish bone;
  • Cretan;
  • Half loop.

The seam of a half loop for smoothing differs only in frequencyThe application of arcs. If for embroidery sutures rather large distances between them were allowed, then when embroidering with a smooth surface this distance should not be at all.
Fish bone can be of two types.In the first case, these are 2 parts of a simple double-sided satin stitch, joined together. In each part, the satin stitch is embroidered in its own direction. A zigzag is formed at the junction of the stitches. They are performed alternately - in one and the other direction. The relief fishbone stitch is performed similarly, with the only difference being that the stitches of different sides do not touch, but are laid on top of each other.
The Cretan stitch is made in the same way as the fishbone stitch, but at the end of each stitch, instead of just inserting the needle, the stitch is secured with a loop. A combination of a double-sided satin stitch and a loop stitch.
