Take a Stitch Tuesday
Life has been busy and I haven't had a chance to participate in Take a Stitch Tuesday for a couple of weeks. Truth be told, if I had really liked the last few stitches I would have made time to try them again. Life has slowed down a little this week. I felt the Chained Barred Stitch worked well with this piece. I couched down some lovely ribbon. I have a huge stash of funky yarns that could have been used but I liked the look of the ribbon. I started stitching with some plain cotton that was already threaded into a needle. When it ran out I was upset with myself for taking the easy road, using an already threaded needle. I didn't remember the specific thread and therefore couldn't match it. Then I thought so what! Use another color of thread. Good grief, a pretty simple solution really.

For this piece, the BEST solution. I like the blend of shades and the sprinkle of pattern in the background.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun and inspiring piece. I like the 2 colors of thread too.
