How to recreate this stitch

[Mike]

I have a customer who has had some letterman jackets done before. The customer sent me pictures of the name that was done before and it has a stitch that I don't have. http://www.flickr.com/photos/14265810@N04/4497296662/
Where can I get this stitch or how can I create it? Also there is a picture for the back any ideas on how this was done to? http://www.flickr.com/photos/14265810@N04/4496616475/

If I can't recreate these what stitch or fill would you recommend?

Thanks Mike

Scott looks like a chain stitch done with heavy thread.

For the back, you just have to mess around with the different fills until you get something that approximates it.

Juli's Right, its a chain stitch and its done with a special machine. a lot of times, it is done by hand, a long, long time ago when I was a kid they used to use them at Disneyland to sew names on your mouse ears while you stood there. I'll guess thsi one was done by hand because then they go back and fill the blank space with stitching (on the back)

I would just offer up Brush Script. I don't think most people would even notice that they look different.
That's what I would do anyway.

If the finish is by hand. How about sewing with a single line the name in font. single line for the name, outlined letters for the repeated rows of chain stitching. How heavy of a thread can we use on an Amaya?

Isnt' it very close to a bean stitch?

[Mike]

Thanks everyone. I believe that it is a chain stitch but I have not be able to get it to work. The Bean stitch is close so I will be using that one. Again thanks

The designs in both pictures were sewn on a chenille machine. The first picture is a straight chain stitch. In the second picture the design is a combination of chain stitches at the edges and varying heights of loop stitches filling the letter.

The best approximation would be to create some form of custom bean stitch that looks something like it.
