Dear Shazeenah,
You are right, the thread I have used here is perle cotton. Sometimes, they make clearer lessons!

Dear Sangeeta, thanks for your interest. I would suggest that this stitch can be used as borders or outline designs where some embelishments can be added. For instance, using some pearls, buttons or mirrors to fill the gaps. You can also try using this stitch to pin down ribbons. Just be careful to use the right kind of thread, based on how you want to use the stitch.
I might put up some finished projects for you to get more ideas in future. In the meanwhile, I hope this information has helped.

Thanks Marlin for the suggestion and it is well taken. I will keep this in mind for the future stitches. I am following a sort of color scheme for each family of stitches. So, I will use better threads from the next family onwards.

hey Jubs..i suggest you use a darker blend of color against this fabric..i say it will enhance the appeal of the stitch and will show the sequence more brilliantly…just an opinion..:))
