A late Work In Progress Wednesday report.
Velveteen Cushion
For the last week I have been using metallic thread in gold, silver and copper to make lines in Chain Stitch.
Sunday Stitch School Stitch Sampler
I made two more circles in #203 Pariser Stitch. One is filled with #83 Mennonite Tacks (on the right) and the other with #102 Knotted Sheaf Stitch (left).
Sunday Stitch School Reference Chart
With the last stitch #205 Glove Stitch I have filled in the fourth reference chart for Sunday Stitch School stitches.
I will remove the butterfly fabric that I use as a support fabric when I stretch the chart in a hoop, then I will add the numbers and names for each stitch. Therefore I have typed up a list of them and printed it out on fabric.
By next week Wednesday I hope to have cut out and stitched a label for each box on the chart.
I will also prepare a new chart for the next set of stitches.
Amazing - 205 stitches!
ReplyDeleteThe metallic threads will look beautiful on velveteen. The Sampler also is growing. I should have followed your idea of a chart as I never name mine and forget what some are called.
ReplyDeleteI haven’t been able to visit for a couple of days because of browser issues, I finally got help.
ReplyDeleteYour progress is beautiful and your organization is a work of art! Good for you, very inspiring.
This is going to be such a very useful sampler. Stitches look different when done for real rather than just diagrammed!
ReplyDeleteNeither the sampler nor you stop growing and evolving.
ReplyDeleteThat is wonderful.
