Buttonhole Stitch Bars and Double Buttonhole Stitch Bars
Buttonhole stitch bars are a variation of the buttonhole stitch that are used to create a more decorative edge around a buttonhole opening. They are created by working buttonhole stitches in a zigzag pattern along the edge of the buttonhole opening. This creates a series of small, diagonal stitches that form a zigzag pattern along the edge of the buttonhole.
- To create buttonhole stitch bars, the needle is first brought up through the fabric and a small, vertical stitch is taken that is parallel to the edge of the buttonhole opening. The needle is then brought down on the opposite side of the buttonhole opening, and a small, vertical stitch is taken, creating a zigzag pattern. This is repeated until the end of the buttonhole opening, creating a series of small, diagonal stitches that form a zigzag pattern along the edge of the buttonhole.
- Buttonhole stitch bars add a more decorative edge to the buttonhole opening and can be used alone or in combination with other embroidery stitches to create more complex designs.
- Buttonhole Stitch Bars: To create buttonhole stitch bars, you will need to work buttonhole stitches in a zigzag pattern along the edge of the buttonhole opening. To do this, start by working a buttonhole stitch as normal, then take a second buttonhole stitch that angles in the opposite direction, creating a zigzag pattern. Repeat this process until you reach the end of the buttonhole opening.
Double Buttonhole Stitch Bars: To create double buttonhole stitch bars, you will need to work two rows of buttonhole stitches, one on top of the other, along the edge of the buttonhole opening. To do this, start by working a row of buttonhole stitches as normal, then work a second row of buttonhole stitches, placing each stitch in between the stitches of the first row. This creates a double row of stitches that gives a more decorative edge to the buttonhole opening.
Note: Both of these variations require a bit more skill and practice to master, so it's always a good idea to practice on scrap fabric first to get a feel for the technique and to test the size of the stitches.
