An embroidery stitch is one of the many different styles of stitches that are used to decorate a fabric. Some embroidery is used to trim items of clothing, and sometimes an entire surface of fabric, such as a blanket, is covered by embroidery. The main difference between sewing and embroidery is that embroidery is used for decorations, and sewing is used to join pieces together.

Embroidery stitches are the smallest units in embroidery. Embroidery patterns are formed by doing many embroidery stitches, either all the same or different ones, either following a counting chart on paper, following a design painted on the fabric or even working freehand.
