I joined TAST at stitch 36 with every intention of keeping up with the weekly 'challenge'. But alas, life and other crafty interests got in the way and it fell by the wayside. Thankfully, Sharon at Pin Tangle has made it easy to stitch along regardless of where you are in the list of stitches. I really do want to improve my embroidery repertoire and it's nice to have a visual record, so I've gone back to the beginning and will work my way through the list. Eventually!
The first two stitches are Fly stitch and Buttonhole stitch. My Buttonhole offering was inspired by Wallachian embroidery which resembles satin stitch, but is worked purely in Buttonhole stitch. Mine has quite a few gaps and is a bit uneven. I just didn't have the patience to do the technique justice!
what a challenge you have undertaken here. I do think about starting again, do you follow Queenie she is making a cushion with all her stitches, I kept up till 105 but only tiny examples and then did do 128 on my latest crazy block
