Fishbone Leaf Stitch

Fig 1: To begin with, bring the needle out through point A, which is the top tip of line Y. Put it in through B, to make a single straight stitch.	Fig 2: Now, bring the needle out from a point very close to A on the the line X. Put it in through a point very close to B on line Y. Again pull out the needle through a point very close to A on line Z.

Fig 3: This procedure of putting in the needle through X and Z alternatively will follow. Each time we will be connecting X-Y and Y-Z.	Fig 4: Make sure all the stitch points lie close to each other to avoid any visible spaces.
Fig 5: Half way through, our leaf would look like this. You can see the rib being formed.	Fig 6: Once finished, the filled leaf would look like this.
