WIPW - A Hexagonial Week

 For this week's Work In Progress Wednesday report, I have only news of 

Hexablooms

where I stitched together the 19 blocks on the left (those on the right were joined together previously).

I also stitched/cut out the following parts:

Sunday Stitch School - Lesson 359: Wool Stitch

It was in a Japanese library book by Yumiko Higuchi that I found the Wool Stitch.

It is simply a Lazy Daisy Stitch with a vertical Straight Stitch on top.

Follow my photot tutorial.

Anchor the Lazy Daisy Stitch.

Come out again in the same hole you started from.

Anchor the Straight Stitch in the same 

hole as the Lazy Daisy Stitch.

In a twisted thread like Perle, you can easily see how the stitch is made. 

In wool, it looks obscure, mysterious and fuzzy.

Homework: Add here.

WIPW - Experimenting with Air Chain Stitch

 This is the last Work In Progress Wednesday report for March 2026.

Hexablooms 

I made five new flowers.

Sunday Stitch School Indigo Sampler 

Here is #357 Whipped Wheatear Stitch made with a plain red Perle and a knobbly, braided and slippery synthetic thread in purple.

As for the #358 Air Chain Stitch, I wanted to use the fact that the arch has plenty of room under its 'belly'. I couched a piece of ribbon under four of the arches. Please note that, on purpose, I put one of the stitched arches out of order. 

A ring was trapped under another two arches. As the ring is not fixed to the fabric, it can be flipped over.

Here is the completed pot holder I showed a zoomed-up picture of last week.
