* Stitch 26: Up and Down Buttonhole stitch, 'Gigot
the Lamb'. Interesting the difference the different lighting
makes - neither is really quite right. The grass is Up and Down
Buttonhole Stitch too - bit more random. With French Knots. Woolly
coat cut from old Barbie coat. Finally managed a balanced butterfly with
* Detatched Chain Stitch, but a bit small, or pale ? I like the pale
pastel colours, but could look a bit insipid - the sun leeches all the
colour out of them. No scale on the grass hummocks - learning curve :-)
'Purple Briar'. TAST week 21. Knotted Cretan Stitch. Plus French Knots, Bullion Bars/Knots TAST 19 and Detatched Chain Stitch TAST 7. My own design. Stranded cotton on pale blue linen, hand dyed. Real colour looks nicer than the picture. Am learning about geometry and neatness.
