Sunday Stitch School - Revision Stitches 276 - 280

 After a bit of a break, it is time to review the last five stitches. Click the names of the stitches to get to the instructions.

276 Alternating Wheatear Stitch

This is an attractive version of the standard Wheatear Stitch.








277 Open Back Stitch

Here is another of the basic embroidery stitches that has been slightly altered.







278 Reversed Palestrina Stitch

If you are left-handed, then this stitch must be easier than the traditional Palestrina Stitch. 












279 Spinal Double Stitch 

Tricky and complex and if you just work the stitch halfway through, you get another attractive stitch. Why not try it out?




















280 Flower Loop Stitch

I would say that this stitch is a set of Buttonhole Bars made into arches and shaped into flower petals...











Homework:

Sunbonnet Sue is daydreaming somewhere...

I bet this hint, the back of the work, won't give you any obvious answer.

Is it a forest?

I am suffering from "brain fog" after my treatment so I'm not having much luck guessing!
