Have you ever wanted to learn new embroidery stitches? Then head over to Pintangle and join TAST, Take A Stitch Tuesday.
TAST #90 is called Twisted Satin Stitch with Beads.
This is a version of the last Twisted Satin Stitch, and a bead has been added.
The longer the stitch, the more the beads move along the stitch. That undulating line of beads is quite nice, I think.
Angela at Princess Bubbles Creates made a great observation; the beads sit very snug and show their nice side. So now I know how to avoid beads that turn their hole upwards. Thank you, Angela!
The back of the stitches look quite good, too. Don't you agree?

I agree, the back of your does look nice. The front is good too!
Those beads do add a bit of pizzazz. Happy stitching!.
That looks a very interesting stitch.
Like you I know know how to make beads sit nicely, this has worked well Queenie and the back is impressive too.
I am so grateful to anyone who shares ideas on their blogs.
Interesting, yes, and super easy!
The top row makes me think of music scores!
Thanks, Pamela!
Your beads behave nicely and I like your herringbones at the backside!
I have been trying to make beads behave well for a long time; I think this is the best solution!
great work. I love the way you have worked this stitch and the beads.
Thank you, Chitra, but they are nothing compared to the fantastic, festive design you created.
Nice bead work, I always like the use of beads they are such a useful medium always giving that extra sparkle!
Yes, aren't beads nice to add a bit pizzazz to a dull surface.
Beautiful with beads.
The bead work was fun to do and would be perfect on a free embroidery where the beads slide along long stitches.
