Lack of time this week means that I need a quick fix for the Sunday lesson today.
A long time ago I did the #82 Bokhara Couching, found in The Embroidery Stitch Bible. On the next page in that great book is Roumanian Couching - the two stitches have similarities, so it feels right to include the Roumanian Couching Stitch now.
Work it like this:
Imagine that you have four vertical lines.
Then follow the picture instructions.
The thread comes out ABOVE the horizontal stitch
and it goes in BELOW and to the left of the horizontal line.
If you strain your eyes you can see the slanted couching stitch.
Repeat.
Neat, quick and easy.
Homework: Add here. Together with last week's homework for Six-Pointed Star.

You have to love quick and easy at times!
And a lovely, subtle texture, as well!
Another pretty stitch I never tried!
Great instructions
This is a new stitch for me.
