PLATE 7
MOST of the stitchery shown here is similar to that on the preceding plates, but has the addition of the plait stitch[4] edged with buttonhole stitch in the veins of the big leaf, and the close knots on the sheaf of the foxgloves, while the sheaf of the convolvulus has veins of stem stitch and small French knots.
In all this piece of work there is to be noted a great deal of buttonholing and darning.
[4] A variation of herring-bone stitch.
