This weekend I started with Sharon's class
Personal Library of Stitches. That's why I needed these scissors.

I'm working on a postcard size sampler with border stitches. That's why I made all those rows! It's the first time I embroider on linen, I only have used it for cross stitching. While I'm working on this, I try to decide about the size I want to use for my sampler for this class.

These are the stitches I used:
- a half finished Guilloche stitch (I stitched it too close to the edge to finish it!)
- Cretan stitch
- 3 rows of Portuguese stem stitches
- straight single upright feather stitch with slipped detached chain stitches
- Chevron stitch with Algerian eyes
- stepped threaded running stitch
- herringbone stitch with French knots
- Chevron stitch variation
all r cute

BeantwoordenVerwijderenHello, fellow stitcher (I have also taken Sharon's class). I like your borders. The one with the Algerian eyes is my favorite. Thanks for sharing.
