I’m rather late in the crafty game so this may not be news to most of you. Chicken Scratch Embroidery is stitched on gingham. It is also known as Amish embroidery, snowflake embroidery, cross-stitch on gingham, depression lace and gingham lace. It looks like a relatively easy type of embroidery that even kids can tackle and uses three simple stitches – double cross-stitch, straight running stitch and woven circle stitch.

Here are some links for those interested:

Just DYING to get me some gingham now!
