About this pattern

Here, diagonal and straight stitches are combined to create an attractive zig-zag pattern that makes a great border when worked in a single row, or an open filling stitch when repeated.

This wall hanging features lines of chevron stitch in variegated thread to form a simple Christmas tree motif, embellished with sequins for added sparkle.

White linen or cotton fabric, 25cm square

Top sewing tip

The line spacing can make a huge difference to the appearance of the chevron stitching – practise on a scrap of fabric first to make sure you’re happy with the overall effect.
