TAST #7 Rope Stitch & #8 Fancy Hem Stitch

This stitch gives a raised line of stitching. The lines are different weights of thread. The ugly butterfly is heavy threads and long stitches.I varied this sitch with distance between stitches, different weights of thread and 3 or 4 wraps to the stitch. My mother did this stitch in a tray linen I use on my tea-wagon.

Is the rope stitch the same as the stem stitch?
