Sunday Stitch School - Revision: Stitches 126 - 130

How quickly this five-week period of new stitches has passed. Let's repeat the stitches and then make a Sunbonnet Sue sampler.

Click on the title to go to instructions and homework.

126 Sydd Tofs
A beautiful fluffy stitch. It will add a new dimension to any embroidery.


 127 Amadeus Stitch
This, too, is so flexible in its 'put together into any constellation',  it will add a fresh look to traditional embroidery designs.


128 Four Legged Stitch
So basic, so useful, so easy, - and so tricky to unstitch, so be careful!


129 Olga's Petal Stitch
Wow! This was a totally new way of stitching. Can we call it surface drawn work?
Many shapes can be made, not only petals.


130 Antwerp Edging Stitch
Easy and quick, you can get two different looks depending on if you keep a tight tension or give the thread some slack.
It can be used not only on the folded edge, but as a surface linear stitch, too.











Homework:
How can I best use these stitches for Sunbonnet Sue? Well, I got a nice idea from one of my blog readers!

    I’m so bad at guessing what you will do. It’s always something very creative. I’ll look forward to finding out!

    I always look forward to seeing what Sue gets up to, and the ingenuity of your use of stitches is a constant delight.

    A new adventure for Sue!
    What has she been up to this time? Maybe working as an Amazon Prime delivery person or an over worked nurse on the Covid 19 frontline?
    The suspense!

    I loved this group of stitches, found them easy to do and am looking forward to seeing Sue soon.
