Border Embroidery Stitches

Border embroidery stitches are specialized hand embroidery techniques used to frame or accent a design. They add decorative edging around an entire piece or highlight specific elements within a pattern, enhancing both structure and visual appeal.

Borders embroidery stitches vary from the basic techniques like Back Stitch or Running Stitch to elaborate designs and more complex stitches like Anklet Stitch or Tacked Herringbone Stitch.
