The bullion stitch, or bullion knot, is a decorative embroidery stitch that creates a raised, textured, and sometimes worm-like appearance. In this short class, Rebecca Ringquist, the artist and designer behind Dropcloth Embroidery, deep dives into the unique formation of the bullion stitch, covering thread tension, the minimum and maximum lengths, flat vs rounded, and various designs, including the bullion rose.
