Pistil Stitch is a nice little stitch, a French Knot with a tail. Easy to learn if you already know French Knot.
For my son’s wedding I was wearing this dress with flowers in Pistil Stitch.
The tail is very long so I coached it down.
Wipped Chain Stitch makes a strong outline, suitable for almost all flowers on my training cloth called Paradise Flowers.

I hesitated very long until I tried Raised Herringbone Band on my Paradise Flower print. When I finally gave it a try the turned out quite well and I am very pleased with the result.

Buttonholed Cable Chain Stitch looks more complicated than it is. On a foundation of Cable Chain Stitch you wrap Buttenhole stitch around it. It is slow so take your time.

I love most stitches except this one, Algerian Eye Stitch. I don’t know why. It is impossible to make this stitch fit an irregular form as a flower motif. Here is my attempt anyway.
