After doing Herringbone Stitch and Colonial Knots on this seam, I looked at it and thought a thicker thread would have looked better because, when working in monochromatic colours, it is the texture of the stitch against the surface that I look for…I thickened the thread by overlaying the first row of Herringbone Stitch with a second row worked over the threads of the first row.

Looks like the second pass was a bit of work, but it made it more noticeable, and I like the combination with the colonial knots and that lace behind it.
