That title probably has a lot of people asking W? If not with the additional two letters. It was an accidental idea I just had upon seeing some graphic about tattoo symbols meaning various things, but which resembled stitches on a sewing machine stitch guide!

Life is full of symbols. I don’t have to enlighten anybody to that. But there are none for stitches so I figured, what’s a few more? So try this exercise. Look at the stitch graphic below and tell me what symbolic meaning you would assign to various stitches (by their number)

Then, if you sew and want to take things further, keep these in mind and think about how you’d “bless” your creations with various stitches and their symbolic meanings, inside or visibly outside… and use them!

Have fun!
