Simple hemstitch, to colonnette and zig zag

The sfilatures are the embroideries to perform after having unthread the cloth, gathering and knotting with the needle, in varied ways, the removed threads. Their traditional use foresees the finishing touch of the laundry, but they creates fascinating games of light also prepared vertically to mullions on it extends, centers and tablecloths. They especially perform on fabrics to regular plot.
