TAST Bonnet Stitch

Okay, I definitely struggled with this stitch.  I thought perhaps if I looked at some different instructions that would help.  There were no other instructions to be found.  Getting beaten by an embroidery stitch makes me feel like a dork!  Normally I would persist until I mastered it.  I just don't have time for that this week and frankly I don't like the stitch well enough.  It is highly unlikely that I would ever use the stitch so why waste my time.  We can't love them all.

    Right on. I agree and had trouble too. Maybe some others will come up with worthwhile samples and show us it's a stitch to consider.

    I can see where you are going wrong. There is a good example of the stitch in Mary Thomas stitch dictionary, but if you could let me know your email I can send you a photo of the instructions.

    It is an unusual stitch and not found in any of my stitch dictionaries. I am so happy to have found other bloggers giving links to their sources.
    Good luck with new instructions.

I am not a gardener but I do love flowers.  It is so much fun for me to get out my macro lens and spend time photographing flowers up close and personal.  I am linking with http://www.shinethedivinecreativityisaspiritualpractice.com/ and http://macromonday2.blogspot.ca/

Slow Stitching Sunday

  I am on a scroll roll.  This is the second one I started this week.  I love the soft romantic feel of these pieces.  I love working with bright and cheerful colours but occasionally I have to play with a different set of colours.   These scrolls are coming together faster than I thought they would.  That also feels good.   Sometimes I need a project that can be completed quickly.
