Yes, I do skip one thread. The reason - 1) it is 32 count linen and a strain on my eyes 2) I am learning so do not want to waste thread! 3) most of the coton a broder I am using is #25 but one is #16 so different weight.<br />YOUR work is always an inspiration!Queeniepatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13281330411053716603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5631637390313519247.post-56686325037572541692015-05-06T23:38:23.825+09:002015-05-06T23:38:23.825+09:00I remember learning how to make those buttonhole r...I remember learning how to make those buttonhole rings, but never used them. They work great on your project. The new project looks very interesting! I also took a closer look at your canvas stitches and noticed you skip a thread between the stitches. I think that's why your cotton a broder doesn't work. If you take a closer look at the stitches on my pink needlepoint sampler at Flickr you can see how I stitched them. <br />https://www.flickr.com/photos/28957501@N04/sets/72157650404207431/Annethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06938803180320247229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5631637390313519247.post-9797901933340808262015-05-02T22:04:35.100+09:002015-05-02T22:04:35.100+09:00The rings were fun to make, please have a try.The rings were fun to make, please have a try.Queeniepatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13281330411053716603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5631637390313519247.post-83617441013754496382015-05-02T20:21:32.376+09:002015-05-02T20:21:32.376+09:00Thanks for the info on how to make rings, this ide...Thanks for the info on how to make rings, this idea could be useful in any of my future projects.
