Sunday Stitch School - Revision: Stitches 371 - 375

 It is time to take a look again at these recently worked stitches and then let Sunbonnet Sue relax a bit.


Click on the titles to get to the instructions.


371: Cross and Twist Stitch

This stitch looks similar to the #43 Moss Stitch but is much easier to do.



372: Looped Stem Stitch

Fixing the stitches on the reverse with glue or some other stabiliser is the trick here.



373: Surface Darning Stitch

Or should we call this weaving?



374: Whipped Reversed Fly Stitch

This stitch is highly decorative and usually puzzles people: "How was this made?"



375: Oblong Cross Stitch

Isn't it nice to quickly change the look of one of our most common stitches from its square form to a tall and slim one?



Homework:

Sunbonnet Sue is fatigued after the long and hot summer. She needs to chill out and relax.

  1. Maybe she could float down the river on a raft.

  4. Yes, I think the Surface Darning Stitch is weaving. Sue is very creative and will surprise us all I'm sure.
