Here are previous samples on denim:

I started by fastening a piece of lace with small Herringbone Stitch, and then I decorated Satin Stitch with Herringbone Stitch on top.

I made a few petals, but the stitches were too long. Therefore I coached them down with Back Stitch.

Then a doodle swatch with Herringbone Stitch mixed with French Knots.

Finally I made a flower with Herringbone and Buttonhole Stitch in the centre.
