Design your Saree Blouse

Today I am going to explain about a new stitch in Aari embroidery.  The picture shown here

is a design using blanket stitch.  You can do blanket stitch using Aari needle.  We can make our custom designs in saree blouses using this Aari/maggam stitch.  It is nothing but a variation of chain stitch.  So keep practicing your chain stitches in all the directions you can.  It will help you to move further in Aari embroidery without any difficult.  This Blanket stitch is little difficult to explain in words.  I'll try my level best to explain it here.  Draw a swirl design as per your idea and start doing chain stitches along the line.  At the end, punch the needle and pull the thread long and punch it.  From there, pull it down to where you start and punch it there, put a knot stitch.

 Pull the thread upwards

 Punch there and pull the thread down

Again pull it up.  Below there are few more pictures for your reference.



Hope these pictures will explain you the blanket stitch.  If not please refer my video here:

    1. Thank you for trying the stitches. For stuffing you have to add some thick rope and do stitches on top of it. Hope this will help you.
