This little square shows the stitches clearly.
The corners of this piece of work are done in an easy way, look carefully at the illustration, and I think you will see what to do. The 2 stitches on each side and the centre stitch are all worked into the same hole on the inside of the corner.
Outlines of Border.
Now if you can do satin stitch, the bedspread can be started.
Leave 12 holes around outside the satin stitch line. Work 50 stitches across both ends, 84 stitches on each side—not counting the 3 extra stitches at corners. Leave 14 holes on the side and work a line of stitches across to the other side, on both ends of work. Leave 14 holes, counting towards the centre from side, and work a second line on each side between the ones worked at each end.
To divide this into squares, leave 14 holes, and work rows of satin stitch between the 2 lines.
Centre of Squares.
Thread your needle with blue, and put it up through the corner hole, miss 2 holes, counting towards the centre, put the needle in the next hole, put the needle up through the third hole in a straight line from end of first stitch, then into same hole as the end of first stitch; work another straight stitch on the other side.
Work 3 more stitches like the first 3. Do 3 more corners in the same way, and join these corners with 4 stitches, these stitches make the square in the centre.
The fringe looks difficult, but it is easier than it looks.
