On this page, we explain the embroidery method and points of \"outline stitch\" with photos and GIF videos.
An outline stitch is a line stitch that is very similar to a stem stitch.
This time, I embroidered with wool thread so that the flow of the thread is easy to understand.

The back side is embroidered on transparent organza fabric, so please refer to how the hands are on the back side of the embroidery frame.
The beginning and end of stitching are embroidered in an inconspicuous way from the front and back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make Beginning stitch near the start position<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

This time, Outline stitch is going from left to right, so make Beginning stitch slightly inside the left edge of the draft line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make Beginning stitch so that it is hidden by Outline stitch that will be embroidered later.
The stitch at the beginning of stitching is completed by stitching two small straight stitches as shown in the video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The point is to make the stitch at the beginning of the stitch as small as possible on the draft line.
By doing so, the stitches at the beginning of the embroidery can be completely hidden, and the back side of the embroidery can be finished without being bulky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u3010\uff12\u3011How to Outline stitch<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Outline stitch is \"the loop position of the thread in the embroidery is the upper side\"<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Make one stitch in the direction of travel and let the thread come out from the end of the previous outline stitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\u30a2\u30a6\u30c8\u30e9\u30a4\u30f3\u30b9\u30c6\u30c3\u30c1\u306e\u523a\u7e4d\u65b9\u6cd5\"
(GIF)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As you advance one stitch in the direction of travel, pull the thread out from the edge of the previous outline stitch without pulling the thread completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\u30a2\u30a6\u30c8\u30e9\u30a4\u30f3\u30b9\u30c6\u30c3\u30c1\u306e\u7cf8\u306e\u4f4d\u7f6e\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Then the reverse side of the outline stitch becomes like a backstitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key point when embroidering Outline stitches is that the loop position of the thread in the embroidery should be on the upper side.
When this loop of thread comes to the bottom, it becomes Stem stitch, so we always keep the position of the loop of thread in mind as we proceed with the embroidery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make End stitch so that it is hidden under the two Outline stitches.
Just like the stitch at the beginning of the stitch, two small straight stitches will be the stitch at the end of the stitch.
Since the final stitch will be embroidered just below the Outline stitch, shift the thread with your finger and embroider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u3010\uff14\u3011Thread loop position during embroidery (pattern with many curves)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

When embroidering a straight line with Outline stitch, it is easy to see the position of the thread loop in the embroidery, but when embroidering characters with many curves, it may be difficult to find the position of the loop.
As shown in the image below, proceed with the embroidery while checking that the loop of thread is on the \"upper side\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\u30ab\u30fc\u30d6\u306e\u30a2\u30a6\u30c8\u30e9\u30a4\u30f3\u30b9\u30c6\u30c3\u30c11\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u2191 When the direction of embroidery changes, it is difficult to decide which side the loop of thread is on.\nEmbroider while remembering that it is \"upper side\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2191 The loop of the thread is on the upper side with respect to the direction of travel, but the thread at hand is on the lower side.
In this state, you may be worried about whether the position of the loop of thread is correct.
Confirm that it is \"upper\" and proceed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2191 If you don't know where to place the thread, try moving the embroidery frame to check the direction of movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
