Tast stitches

Some new stitches on my leaf which I am filling in slowly
 
 
 
Left side: in yellow the slipped detached chain stitches
and in green buttonholed double chain.
I used very thin fil à broder in green
 
 
 
The slipped detached chain stitches
 

 
The stitch of today June 11, 2013, Tast stitch 70
crested chain stitch
 
 
The leaf is lying upside down now -
the green stitches are
buttonholed double chain stitches (69)

  1. This leaf is coming along beautifully. These is so much to see. What did you think of the Buttonholed Double Chain? Did it take you time to get used to it? I found it tricky, but once mastered, fun.
