Maybe I will not use many of them, but I do want to be able to recognise them and use other than my old favourites.Queeniepatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13281330411053716603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5631637390313519247.post-62992426497787888572012-12-17T11:31:06.209+09:002012-12-17T11:31:06.209+09:00That was just for fun!

And over time you learn to see what stitches you used, but I keep notes of stitches and threads I used. That way I can repeat it very easy if I want to. It doesn't take much time, there's a notebook at my side when I'm stitching, next to my camera!Annethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06938803180320247229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5631637390313519247.post-70183104185202632352012-12-16T00:14:15.858+09:002012-12-16T00:14:15.858+09:00Your sample is beautiful, I love the colors of you...Your sample is beautiful, I love the colors of your berries.

You have mastered (mistressed?) an encyclopaedia of stitches and even if you can't quite remember them all you will know they exist and be able to use them in some wonderful projects. Don't put yourself through testing, why give yourself that stress - you know where to look when you need these things.

The name of each stitch on a slip of paper in a box, pull one slip and work that stitch, then check against the instructions.
