Sunday Stitch School - Lesson 85: Wrapped Cross Stitch

Welcome back to Sunday Stitch School after our two-week long winter break. I hope you had a good time. I was able to stitch quite a lot.

So let's begin 2019 with a variation of the Cross Stitch, the Wrapped Cross Stitch.

The name explains everything! Make a Cross stitch and then wrap the two Straight stitches with  the same thread.

It is best to stretch the fabric in a hoop or frame before you start.







Homework:
Add Wrapped Cross near these stars.

The wrapping really makes the cross Pop!

It's a good addition, creating a new raised texture - very useful!

This is certainly a different stitch.I'm off to play with it.

This is a different slant on a cross stitch. It does make it stand out.
More stitch adventures!
I was able to get some work done on projects too.
