Friday Homework for Lesson 107: Tvistsöm - Vertical and Diagonal

I have now tried all three ways to do the Tvistsöm and like them all. Working on the bias for the diagonal stitches at first seemed difficult, but once I turned the fabric 'on the bias' it was much clearer:



Here is my homework:
Aida Sampler

Sunday Stitch School Reference Chart

Canvas Sampler (vertical)

Canvas Sampler (diagonal)


Here the three versions can be seen. Don't you think they look different? The vertical (pink) has much more of a striped look than the other two.

They all look different and they all look great.

With stitching, there are three things you can play with to alter the look: the angle, the spacing, and the scale of the thread. You have a perfect demonstration of the effect of angle variations here!

Wonderful samples. They look like neat knitting and each angle gives a completely different look.
You must be so pleased with your outcome.
