Once you have got the hang of it, then it is time to pull out another type of fabric and perfect your stitches or let the needle run amok.<br />Thank you for always having such a positive attitude!Queeniepatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13281330411053716603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5631637390313519247.post-60673242540199886922014-04-14T21:28:54.521+09:002014-04-14T21:28:54.521+09:00The stitch itself is really nice and belongs to a ...The stitch itself is really nice and belongs to a cq block. You just need to do it either neatly and evenly, or go wild with free form embroidery.

Sometimes I like the uniformity of stitching on Aida but then 'freeform' Just lets my mind take over.....Thats what I love about stitching, there is no end to what you can accomplish !<br />Have a good day Queenie,<br />Hugs<br />Chris Richards<br />xxxChris(craft) and Dave(photos) Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05260908697420010398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5631637390313519247.post-50586664316210196642014-04-14T15:29:16.687+09:002014-04-14T15:29:16.687+09:00looks pretty good to me Queenie will have a go i...looks pretty good to me Queenie will have a go in the next few days and see what happens to mine.

In this case it was more of 'can't be bothered' but Annet soon put me back on track and I re-did the stitches on Aida, a much easier fabric to count on. See the difference on my latest blog post!Queeniepatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13281330411053716603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5631637390313519247.post-39640749626310322032014-04-14T10:03:03.593+09:002014-04-14T10:03:03.593+09:00I am glad I am not trying to pull that off because...I am glad I am not trying to pull that off because I just can't count.
