Satin stitch
What is Satin Stitch?
A satin stitch is a series of closely spaced zig-zag stitches that create smooth, glossy filled areas and crisp lettering in embroidery. It is ideal for text and borders up to a moderate width.
Beyond a certain width the satin stitch becomes loose and snag-prone, which is where a fill stitch takes over.
