huh! I’m doing more than writing and it’s probably a good proportion. For week 11 of TAST I prepared two more stitches on my red bag:
It’s up and down buttonhole stitch which I first saw in Sharons site (but earlier than TAST). I like it because it gives lots of possibilities when you want to create a plant-like motifs. It’s great when you want to embroider a sea-life plants and used it like that in a green heart. Here’s more typical version
I found it useful to use frames while stitching this kind of stitch. It’s rather difficult when you use a hoop whithout any stand and extremly difficult whithout any tension. When you have both hands free it’s pretty easy. I had some problems whith understanding how it works at first, but after few stitches it became obvious.
