Woven wheel stitch
Sometimes called Woven Rose stitch, the weaving can be done very tightly to create thick, built up
petals, or it can be woven loosely for a softer, flatter effect. Begin by making an odd number of spokes
of a wheel using straight stitch. Then weave around, in and out of the spokes until the area is full.

Fishbone stitch
Ideal for making leaves or feathers, the stitches cross each other at the centre, creating a dense middle
section. Begin with a single straight stitch to mark the centre and then work diagonally from either side,
crossing over the centre stitch until the area is filled.
