It's organised by Anne Brook (@hannemadebyanne) and each weekend she introduces a new embroidery stitch. She's working on a long strip of linen which I love but sadly could not seem to find any to buy.
Instead I decided to work samples of four stitches, worked in stranded cotton on linen, which I will mount and display as a series. I was a bit late starting but soon caught up and now look forward each weekend for the next stitch. They have mainly been simple embroidery stitches that you can 'play' with but I have learnt one new one - granitos - which I will definitely use again.
So far I have two completed in the series but they are still waiting to be mounted and framed.
Seed stitch - cross stitch - fly stitch - chain stitch |
French knots - blanket stitch - bullion knots - pistol stitch |
