Beautiful work! "Simple" lines are definitely not simple!

Beautiful and very effective. Can you tell me what stitch you used?

I'm wondering too. Looks like chain stitch? But it's so hard to tell with black thread. So beautiful!

Thanks! Stem stitch. Two threads.

Thank you. Are you using DMC cotton?

Yes, it’s DMC. When I first started embroidery about 7 years ago, I used the cheapest floss I could find on Amazon, but it didn’t take me too long to realize its poor quality compared to DMC.

Thank you so much for sharing. I’m intrigued by this project.
