Built in Thread: Six Techniques for Structure in Stitch
What can you build from a simple stitch? In my work, the blanket stitch has become a way to create forms, build layers, and explore structure in thread.
Built in Thread brings together six techniques I return to in my own practice, with step-by-step photographs so you can follow each process at your own pace.
Five techniques grow from the blanket stitch, which I’ve spent years exploring beyond its usual purpose. The sixth explores filling space with dense texture. If you’re new to embroidery, the guide begins with the foundational stitch and takes you through each step.
