What is Chain Stitch Embroidery?

Chain stitch embroidery refers to a specific type of embroidery technique that utilizes chain stitches to create designs, patterns, or decorative elements on fabric. It is a versatile and widely used embroidery stitch known for its unique appearance and texture.

Hand chain stitch embroidery has a long history dating back thousands of years. During the industrial revolution machines were produced, automating the once tedious process. In the 1960s chain stitch was often found on a lot of vintage mechanics uniforms, or old bowling shirts. You can see a similar stitch to this in the bottom hem of jeans. 

Since then, the technology and design of these machines have continued to evolve and improve. Today, computerized embroidery machines with advanced software and automation capabilities are used for chain stitch embroidery and other embroidery techniques. These modern machines offer a wide range of features, precise control over stitching, and the ability to create intricate designs quickly and accurately.
