Some Cards

Running stitch into holes on card, with detached button hole etc

Managed to make some cards after months of working towards it and accidentally sending off for card blanks several times. 

The initial ideas I had didn't work cos I still have difficulty with counted stuff cos of the memory difficulties - I have to recite everything, I don't retain the shapes. But am pleased with what I eventually managed. Am enjoying using the perlé threads I got off internet and using some bling. :-)

Especially chuffed with this idea of making holes in a circle, filling them with running stitch which is then the only bit which shows at the back so could be tidied up with a bit of whipped ribbon or drawing a string at the bottom like it's a balloon. Then detatched buttonhole stitch on the surface all the way round. Infact I did just one up and down detached bh on the inner and normal detached bh on the outside. The outer gives the neat edge and the inner gives a loop to be able to stitch into. All ends are hidden inside the bh. Lots of potential for fillings using needlelace and hedebo. Need to remember to have to have the threads which lace into the loops go in and out from the top of the loop not underneath - looks neater. Also for future ref useful to fix the threads in and out of loops with little knots like in lattice stitch or an up and down bh as it keeps the work more stable. Tho it does mean less tweakability later.
