Take a stitch Tuesday


The double Herringbone instructions can be found at http://pintangle.com/  Sharon is so generous with her time and talents.  I love learning a new stitch from her weekly.
The top photo is my attempt at the double Herringbone.  I stitched the second part of the stitch rather close to the first Herringbone.  It doesn't look like Sharon's sample but I will call it a variation.  I am good at variations!  Since it didn't seem exactly right I thought why not explore a bit.  So I added a third set of Herringbone stitches thus making a triple rather than a double.  I quite like it.

    Three cheers for variations! The spacing can be difficult but then you get a new variety instead!

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.
