TAST (Take a Stitch Tuesday). Week One.
Herringbone Stitch.
Last year stitchers all over the world created thousands of fantastic works as part of the TAST challenge.
Emmy is creating a one-of-a-kind book that will be part of
CYBER FYBER next January. I, however, am making a notebook...a functional (as opposed to "beautiful"!) working tool to which I might refer later. So, here's week one: Herringbone Stitch, counted above how I'd probably use it below.
Oh, it's easy enough now. Just wait until you get to about week 44 or so.....*L*
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful resource this will be for you! I wish you luck and perserverance on completing all the stitches.
ReplyDeleteready for week two? :-)
ReplyDeleteI have often thought of doing a 'book' of stitches that I could refer back to for various works. I like that you have the traditional stitch and the innovative version as well! Great idea.
ReplyDeleteSusan, your right we are crossing paths today! I might just join in on the TAST.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sample Susan only 51 more to go.
ReplyDeleteSuch a GREAT idea! I have been looking for a book like that for a long time. Once you can actually touch and examine. It is so difficult to learn stitches from instructional sheets. But, I seem to beable to work it out...with several emails to you!
ReplyDeleteHi Susan, don't know it this will be near enough for your visit.http://www.voirrey.com/
