Buttonhole bar

Tast stitch #65 is called buttonhole bar 

 

I filled the center of the leaf with a couple of buttonhole bars
I wonder what will come next -
it is the intuition of the moment when I am stitching

There are also some knotted buttonhole stitches on the right side

(It would certainly be better to show the whole leaf -
however so much for the moment)

.......
During our cutting of the fir trees and burning
the branches we nevertheless took care of this little cripple tree
not knowing what will come out of it -

We bought the old house last year and the garden was more than wild looking
so this explains our ignorance

 

and there was a surprise when the days got warmer

 

and looking closer I was delighted to find this

 

 

 

A magnolia with very large blossoms

Taking care in all this wild cutting and cleaning

was so much worth it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Knotted buttonhole stitch

 

I was not very inspired by this stitch -

so I started to stitch something and

waited what it would tell me....

 

 

And I was told by my imagination that this is "wildlife" -

deer running or grazing.

You will need a magnifying glass

to discover the shy, very thin animals.

 

 

 

That's my sample for week 39 of Tast2012

it is the

Knotted Buttonhole Stitch

 

 

 

 



Take a stitch Tuesday 2 week 5

Knotted Buttonhole stitch of Sharonb's Tast 2 week 5

I tried circles. I sewed beads to the white one to the right.

The beads show their holes, instead they should lie on their side.

I know better now because Sh., a far away friend, told me how to do it.
