What types of stitching are there?

sewing machine stitches: Straight (or running stitch) zigzag Satin stitch (a very narrow zigzag) back baste blanket buttonhole gather Overlock (serge) stay-stitch (a straight stitch done just inside the seamline to strengthen the seam) Stitch in the ditch (meaning to stitch inside the seam to help hold it down) Many machines have the capablility to sew embroidery stitches by means of special attachments, or the newer ones can be programmed by computer. There are many other kinds of stitches, I have an embroidery dictionary that has over a hundred stitches, and there are similar dictionaries for needlepoint and for cross stitch. I have provided some links to some that can be found online.
Perhaps you meant names of stitchery, such as embroidery, quilting, sewing machine, sewing, cross-stitch, needle art, crochet, knitting, crewel, embellishing, beading, blackwork, and hardinger. There are probably more, but these are the ones that come to mind.
