Chain Stitch Couching

Chain stitch couching is a variation on couching, whereby a detached chain stitch is used to fasten down the laid threads rather than other forms of stitches. This type of stitch is used for free-style embroidery. It is also associated with North African and Middle Eastern embroidery.
