Friday Revision Homework - Stitches 346 - 350

Here is the Sunbonnet Sue sampler for stitches 346 - 350.

It was #349 Lantern Stitch that set the theme - Sue as a teenager, snogging her boyfriend Sam under a street lamp.

The two cross stitches, #348 Freeform Cross and #350 Over-Under Cross, were useful for a starry sky. 

The Canvas stitch #347 John Stitch turned out to be great for Sue's winter coat, a quilted down coat.

I also like #346 Double Lazy Daisy Stitch for Sue's wavy hair. Believe it or not, but Sam's shaggy hair is made up of a staggered mass of #348 Freeform Cross.

Other stitches are the Stem Stitch and Whipped Back Stitch.

Friday Homework for Lesson 347: John Stitch

 Easy but time-consuming is my verdict. It was fun to work with different coloured thread.
