Hand Embroidery Tutorial - Brick and Cross Filling Stitch

Brick and cross filling stitch is a variation of the traditional brick stitch, which is used to fill large areas with a textured pattern. This stitch is worked by creating rows of brick stitches in one direction, and then working rows of cross stitches in the opposite direction, creating a criss-cross pattern.


To work the brick and cross filling stitch, you will need to start by working a few rows of brick stitches in one direction. Then, you will work rows of cross stitches in the opposite direction, making sure that the cross stitches are worked over the spaces between the brick stitches. This creates the criss-cross pattern.

It is important to keep the stitches of each row close together and the tension even to create a smooth and consistent pattern. This stitch can be worked with different colors of thread and can be varied by using different types of threads or varying the size of the stitches.

This stitch can be used to fill large areas, such as the background of a design, or to add texture to a piece. It can be used on a variety of fabrics, and it can be used in traditional embroidery or in modern designs. With practice, you can create intricate and beautiful designs using the brick and cross filling stitch.
