Four leaf clover stitch

[mason204]

I'm looking for instructions on making this stitch.

 

I'm not even sure if this is what it's called. I found a web site that has directions for making a little clovers edging. The edging shown has 3 sides to the clover, not four. The photo on the site is pretty close to what I'm looking for. It's frustrating when you've seen the stitch but can't find directions to re-create it.

 

Thanks for your help.
