Chain stitching

...There are also funerary tents and awnings made with patchwork and appliqué techniques dating to around 1000 BCE. In China, mud with chain stitch marks has been excavated from a tomb dating to the mid-Western Zhou period (around 950 BCE). Greek artifacts from around 400 BCE include a piece of linen (unearthed in Attica) on which the embroidery thread has degraded and only the pinholes of a lion remain, and a fragment of a centaur, a wool-embroidered wall hanging for a tomb. In the Altai tombs, there are horse saddles made of embroidered and appliquéd felt, and appliqué wall hangings for a tomb.
