Stitch Tutorial

Bullion stitches are similar to french knots, but more elongated.  

Bullion Stitch

Begin with a threaded needle.  Bring the needle up through the work from the back. 

Wrap the thread around the needle several times.  I've done so four times in this example. 

Hold the thread slightly taut, and thread the needle back through the work a small distance away from where it was brought up previously.
