Traditional embroidery techniques

Traditional embroidery techniques involve decorating fabric using various stitches and threads. Common methods include satin stitch, which creates smooth, filled areas; backstitch for outlines; and chain stitch for textured lines. These techniques often feature hand-stitched patterns that reflect cultural stories and craftsmanship. Embroiderers select specific stitches and thread types to achieve different textures and effects, combining skill and artistic expression. The result is intricate, durable designs that can embellish clothing, accessories, and textiles, preserving cultural heritage and showcasing craftsmanship through meticulous needlework.
