This homework took a bit longer than I had anticipated, and I did not complete the work on the Canvas Sampler.
Here are the other samplers, though.
Sunday Stitch School Reference Chart
I used waste canvas to make the stitches as even as I could, but they are very wonky.
These are also done with the help of waste canvas and for some reason they are much more even!
Aida Sampler
Just plain black thread.

They may look wonky to you, but not to me!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking that I like the coloured ones the most but then I thought it could look like a fence if done in one colour. Or the middle of a racket.
ReplyDeleteI think this stitch wants to be even. I like it on the aida best. It does look like it takes time to do.
ReplyDeleteI like all three examples and colours.
ReplyDeleteYour samples of woven stitch are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAnd your green and magenta block is gorgeous, in your previous post, with a fun story to go with it.
I like the part where you helped a student learn English by sharing her interest in fashion!
Caring enough to do that makes all the difference.
I really like this stitch though I can imagine how long it took to make it. I once tried (thought I was going to make something bigger) to do Aomori sashiko stitching (forget what it was called) but the confusion of counting stitches drove me crazy!
