Take a stitch Tuesday

The Knotted Buttonhole Band stitch is very cool!  I am really glad that Sharon B at http://pintangle.com/ showed how to do it.  Mine looks a bit sloppy but it is still cool.

    True to good form you are quickly working the new TAST stitch. Good girl!
    Have you tried it in different threads? I played around a bit yesterday and found it a cool stitch when worked in a thread with a good twist. When I used Coton a Broder, which has little twist, I got frustrated. Not cool!

  I am still working away at attaching my circles to this piece.  I have added some other stitching as well.  I am very keen to add some beading to this one but that must wait.  Beading needs to be the last step.  I don't need the frustration of my threads getting snagged on the beads.   Progress can feel oh so slow.  Especially when it is because I am distracted by other projects!

 I started this collage-style fish this week.  Such a fun little project.  I have no purpose for this fish at the moment but I do love an underwater theme.  I love working with bright colours as well as blues and greens.  I am sure I will find a fun home for this fish eventually.   I am excited to start adding beads and sequins but there is more embroidery to be done first.  Plus, that tail needs some work.  I think I have some funky yarn that will work nicely.  Oh, how I love to embellish!

 I enjoyed stitching my September slice.  I got out my book by Carole Samples Treasury of Crazy Quilt Stithes.  It has wonderful combinations of stitches.  I have had this book for years and never properly used it.  It uses basic stitches in interesting combinations. So, I didn't really learn any new stitches but I did enjoy combining stitches in new ways.  I might find that more helpful in the long wrong.   The weather has still been cooperative for stitching outside.  The week ahead looks good too.  I might get a jump start on my October slice.  It is sad to think about putting away the deck furniture but it can wait at least a week.
