Circles with Tast Stitches - a Tast design challenge

Raised herringbone
sailors edge

straight stitch

chain stitch

detached chain stitch

French knots

I made a tiny quilt with appliqued circles on which

I stitched the proposed Tast stitches

Ok, raised herringbone was not proposed by Sharon

I noticed it too late

 

this circle is fixed with sailor edge stitches -

and embellished with

running stitches

here are finally the straight stitches with French knots in the middle of the flowers

I fixed the circle with herringbone stitches and

surrounded the little flowers with chain stitches

the French knots

fixed with chain stitches and detached chain



Chain stitches week 8

Chain stitches - one can really do everything with them

I looked for a photo in my archive and found a sculpture

made of wood. I cut out a section of it for stitching.

You might think that it is not at all that - well, never mind

I stitched with fun.

The wood

and the wood grain.

Not recognizable? Because it is inverted!

It could be called artistic freedom.

Detached chain stitch, week 7

I did something and suddenly a palm tree came out -
at least I can see one -
The thickest thread is a micro fiber yarn for knitting
a challenge to get it through the linen (old bed sheet)
other threads used are
very fine hand dyed (not by me) multicoloured cotton,
perle No. 5
and that's it....
