Sunday Stitch School - Revision: Stitches 156 - 160

First of all A Happy St Valentine's Day to all.

I made this 19 years ago. I followed the instructions in Elly Sienkiewicz's book 'Appliqué 12 Easy Ways'.

........................

Here at Sunday Stitch School we have learned another five stitches so it is time to review. Click on the title to see how to do them.

156 Hyacinth Stitch

Thanks to Rachel's clever stacking of stitches we have the beautiful Hyacinth Stitch.

 

157 Invented Stitch (Cross)
This is a real nice stitch, it has already become a favourite of mine.

158 Invented Stitch (Half Cross)
This 'cousin' of the last stitch has the look of a winged insect.


159 Invented Stitch (Slashed)
Another 'cousin'.

160 Portuguese Clover Stitch

Here is a stitch that could be a flower, a pine cone or a raspberry, or ....

Homework.
Be inspired by the stitches to make a Sunbonnet Sue.
I have taken the help of crayons and a molding mat.

    Ooh, I wonder what Sue is going to be up to this time?

    This looks like a big challenge this time! I'm looking forward to see the result.

    Lovely Quilt of hearts and such a pretty edging. The stitch is perfect for becoming a hyacinth. I see a blouse for Sue, so far..

    You could publish a book with pictures of all of your creative Sues.

    I like hyacinths and the stitch too.

    I think I see a flower garden growing. Signs of spring?
