WIPW - Ready for Another 35 Stitches

December is the busiest month of the year. Yet, I managed to put in quite a lot of stitch-related work.

Here is my Work In Progress Wednesday report.


Hexablooms

I arranged and numbered three piles of hexagon flowers. They are now ready to be added to the flimsy.



When I visited the quilt contest in Nakano, I was given a handkerchief-sized piece of fabric, which you can see - it is the one in yellow with white beans. I basted some petals and made one more flower. Then I made two more blocks with animal prints on.



Sunday Stitch School Reference Chart

With stitch #345 I had completed the old chart. It was time to type the number and name of each stitch, then print out the list on cotton fabric, cut out each label and stitch it on.




I now have seven charts for Sunday Stitch School, from Stitch #1 - #345:



Add to that, the 155 TAST stitches that are on three samplers:


In total 500 stitches learned since 2012:



So the next step was to make a new chart. I drew the boxes and stitched the lines with black thread. The butterfly print strips of fabric were stitched on as support fabric so that I can easily put the sampler in a hoop. 

While I was on it, I stitched on the labels for the first five stitches, 346 - 350 (only the name of the first stitch, Double Lazy Daisy Stitch, is visible; on the other four boxes, I blurred out the names. I don't want to spoil the fun of not knowing what stitch is coming up next!

I added the latest stitch, Double Lazy Daisy Stitch, but they are actually Triple Lazy Daisy Stitch!
