After
my first experiments with the
raised chain I wanted to try some variations. I knew about
Deepa's fur stitch, so I tried it with some perle 8. It's a nice stitch, but it looks better in reality.

I found some great experiments
here and I liked the single raised chain stitches. I tried them with DMC perle 5 . . .

. . . and a variegated Stef Francis perle 5. I experimented with the size of the stitches. The first 2 rows are the raised chain, the bottom row is the variation from week 29.

These last 2 experiments are done in burgundy perle 8. On the left one I made the burgundy raised chain first and added a pink row with perle 12 on both sides. On the right one I added 2 beads to the straight stitches and embroidered the raised chain between them.

My finished sampler for week 28 and 29 is
here.
Lovely sampler with some great variations.Loved the woven trellis sampler too. Very creative,Annet.
