Long and Short Stitch		Return to Stitch Samples Index

A dense filling stitch used when a shape is too big to be filled with regular satin stitch, or when shading is required. In the first row, work the stitches alternately long and short. The second and subsequent rows are all worked the same length thus preserving the staggered appearance.
