Eskimo Lace Ending
Applications Of The Stitch And Embroidery Tips
Eskimo lace ending is excellent for borders. It creates a decorative edging of textile houseware or garments. The Eskimo stitch would look great in border designs or as a decorative motif on the seams.
We can use the same color both for running stitches and for lacing. Also, we can use contrasting colors to create a beautiful decorative border design.
Some additional tips:
- Make all the running stitches the same length, so the final ornament is symmetric and fluid.
- Different sizes of the running stitches will create different patterns – play with them.
