The trader at FOQ no longer had them so I settled for this mobile of Christmas wreaths. I did not realise it was worked on stiff paper. At first I found it hard to do, now I have solved the problem and the stitching is a breeze.Queeniepatchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13281330411053716603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5631637390313519247.post-20124705618608934442013-10-11T19:34:43.657+09:002013-10-11T19:34:43.657+09:00Your projects are looking lovely, you are putting ...Your projects are looking lovely, you are putting all the stitches that you have learned to good use!

Better keep that cupboard door well shut!<br />Thank you for your advice. Using tape to secure the card/paper to a frame might be the answer. Or I might use a trick I saw at FOQ...

The paper is very stiff and the holes a bit 'sharp', I'm afraid pulling the thread too tightly would result in the THREAD breaking rather than the paper!!

The quilt is so beautiful and the cushion so creative - such a great way to put your TAST stitches into use.<br />I have stitched on the perforated paper quite a bit. I also stitch with fabric in hand and don't miss not having a hoop when I stitch on the paper. If it is possible to cut the large sheet of paper into smaller pieces, it might be easier to handle. this three dimensional ornament will be so nice hanging on your tree.Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04207344791348560569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5631637390313519247.post-18533664954003449322013-10-10T05:01:06.437+09:002013-10-10T05:01:06.437+09:00Your embroidery is coming along nicely.

Don't pull the thread to tightly or the paper splits. And I usually use a backing paper/fabric to help stabilise it. I'm used to stitching without a frame though as I don't tend to use one with fabric either. Just a thought, I don't know how strong your card is but could you tape it or staple it to a rectangular frame?Lins Artyblobshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17622271221153290281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5631637390313519247.post-18749753249520132812013-10-09T23:58:16.266+09:002013-10-09T23:58:16.266+09:00O dear, another UFO!

I think we all have learnt so much due to Sharon. But I cannot keep in mind all the Tast stitches and my Tast stitch collection is always at hand. Sometimes I do not know how to begin a stitch :-( It is alway a pleasure to visit your blog!Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04244261320087332772noreply@blogger.com
