Friday Homework for Lesson 98: Sprat's Head Stitch

This was easier than I had expected, but I found it important to check the tension and not pull the thread too tight. A hoop is important.

A nice stitch whichever way you stitch it. I think I like it on Aida best! But it is very effective the other way too!

They would look like little fir/Christmas trees if they were stitched in green thread.
