Today we have a star stitch! Yes, it is a star, and it has six points. If you looked at Mary Corbet's stitch tutorial in my previous blog post, you know all about today's stitch. If not, you can find her tutorial for Star Stitch here.
In her article, she also has a link to a website where you can print out the circles the star is based on, so if you did not make the template last week, you can use such a circle instead.
So you start with a #262 Star of David, which we learned last Sunday, and stitch on top of it.
Follow my photo tutorial:
First, you need to imagine the stitch order.
When you have completed 'once round the park', do another round.
Here I have completed three rounds.
Continue until you have a completely filled star.
Ain't it nice?
Homework: Add here. The Aida Sampler will probably be a challenge!
It is nice! I love the way it looks!
ReplyDeleteWow! Big change when you fill it in!
ReplyDeleteIt's a complete delight, isn't it! Always lovely to see how the stitch changes from outline to filled in...
ReplyDeleteI was already having fun after watching the second lap, but it was so much fun to watch until the end.😂
