The top line is 2 rows of Chevron StitchThe first row is a wide seam and the second row which I have done in a second colour is a narrow seam.
The second row is a single row of Chevron Stitch worked so that the bars along the edges meet each other as per the illustration below.
The third row is Chevron Stitch used to hold a length of ribbon in place.
The bottom row is a single row of basic Chevron stitch trimmed with straight stitches along the edges and colonial knots in the gaps.
The image on the right is my 12 inches of stitching with the Take it Further May colours.

I really enjoy stitching the Chevron stitch, but I have not tried it so many different ways and would never have imagined how cool it could look combined with straights and knots. Great job!

Hi, Annie! Feel like I’ve been gone forever – because I have. I’m working on a writing project and just not getting around the blogs. I had to come see whatyou were doing, though. I love that last seam. It is actually quite simple, but looks so elegant!
