Sheaf Stitch, TAST 33, 'Sitting Dog'. Seed Stitch and Beaded Chain Stitch. 2 shades of stranded thread. Surprising how much thread is used up in textured stitches. Lovely effect though. This is ginger. Quite chuffed cos from a distance it does look like her. Experiment with texture for fur. Again it looks better from a distance. Learning curve - when will I learn to do a sampler first ? - takes a while to get into my stride with a new stitch. Tho with the effort it takes to do each pic I don't think I'd manage the sampler too. Well, these are my samplers.

On this pic with the different light the border in Chain Stitch with the little pearls shows up better. They're off a necklace from Auntie Eunice. Have hung on to it for years in the dream of making things with it one day.
