Swiss Embroidery consists of working upon fine linen or batiste and embroidering patterns in satin stitch and other embroidery stitches, typically with white embroidery cotton thread.
During the first half of the 19th century the peasants of Switzerland were celebrated for the beauty and delicacy of the work they produced.
Today it is used in many fine heirloom or other sewing projects to add that extra flare and embellishment.
