Step by step pictorial process of making the feather stitch. 1. take the needle out at point a from beneath the fabric. pull the thread up and insert at point c and push through at point c. 2. keep the thread beneath the needle and pull the thread up. again insert the thread at point d on the other side of the stitch. 5. double feather stitch. the double feather stitch is created just like the basic feather stitch except you'll create three 'v' shapes for each direction. make 6 parallel guide lines. come up at line 2 (a) then return to the back at line 4 (at b) to form a loose loop. come up at c, above your loose thread & pull through to form the first ‘v’. Continue to put the needle in through a and bring it out through b. pull the needle out with the thread under it as shown, to make the next ‘v’. fig 3: now, continue the procedure by putting the needle in through the outer stitch line and bringing it out from the inner stitch line. fig 4: once a small portion of the feather stitch is done.
