Once I did this stitch, I loved it. I love the texture, how it adapts to curves; it's visually interesting. I used perle cotton for the back stitch. The other piece is a purple/pink/silver novelty thread. The middle line of stem stitch was on the original linen; I added one row above and below it and filled in with Pekinese.
I've posted a few enhanced details on my blog. Not posting much over there due to camera issues. :-(

Great creativeness for your Pekinese stitch Deborah. I really like this multi-layer design element. Love the block so far.
Absolutely lovely! I really like the thread you used.
What a lovely way to use this stitch .
What a wonderful enhancement to the existing embroidery! Great thread choices.
I love this! Very nice. The threads add a lot of punch.
The rose and the Pekinese stitch frame create a nice art deco effect.
