Of course I start with my TAST 2010 sampler. There
are a lot of experiments on it, I wrote about most of them here. Take a closer
look at it here.
This detail is part of my Eastern stitch sampler. I
stitched the Eastern stitch in
red and dark blue and added the chained cross stitch in blue at the 4 sides.
The threads are perle 5.

A detail on my last TAST 2010 sampler. The dark brown
chained cross stitches are done in perle 5.
This last detail is a seam on my quiltie Harvest. I
used green perle 5 and made
a woven chained cross stitch by taking the thread under the first half of the stitch before making the chain. I wrote about the making of my pumpkin here.

There are more old samples of chained cross stitch
from other participants in the Flickr TAST group.
Waar haal je toch de tijd vandaan voor al dat borduurwerk? Ik word bijna jaloers :-))

You've stitched so many great variations of this stitch!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenmore great examples of what you can do with a stitch. I am amazed that you can put your hand on older samples so easily, your sewing room must be so well organised, I struggle to find things from 2 days ago never mind 3 years ago.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI love the patterns you have produced with this stitch in your sampler. On the Harvest quiltie it is easy to understand how the stitch is made.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenLike Margaret I take my hat off; you are so organised!
Your stitching is exquisite!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI love all the different stitches, you have a good eye for design!
