Cretan Stitch

Cretan Stitch how to double up rowsThis seam is a copy of Detail 118, which was one of my Cretan stitch Variations, I also did it on one of the blocks on mum’s memory quilt (Detail176).

The seam is 2 rows of Cretan stitch partially overlapped, when working the second row I passed the thread under the first row before doing each of the down facing stitches, doing this makes the rows interlock nicely.

thread is 3 strands of cotton floss.
