Did a little chain stitch, back stitch, stem stitch and wrapping stitches. Looking forward to next class today.
Still getting tangles despite using Thread Magic and shorter threads. Would like to know if there is a good way
to undo the knots that just come out of no where. HelenW

Your stitching does not look like a beginner. I have DMC 5 floss. Which stitches did you use it on? Your stitchinglooks great. HelenW

I’m attaching some photos as you requested as well as some Pennies I did over the summer. Hope this gives someone inspiration. As for my piece, my silk arrived from Sue Spargo, but I haven’t had time to work with it. Too busy finishing up Christmas gifts!
hand stitcher. I have a feeling of trepidation every time I pick up my needle. Don't know why. Maybe because I feel so comfortable
doing applique and edge stitching by machine. But I am not giving up. I just want to be able to use it to embellish what I do by machine. HelenW

it if you would post some of those pictures here on the hand embroidery thread of the forum. I know there are lots of people
doing this project that did not do Color My World and they would love and be amazed by your creativity. HelenW

Originally posted by sandytn View PostI have had the pattern for Wendy Williams’ Round the Garden for months and when Alex announced this class I knew it was time to get this pattern out and get started. I am reducing to 65% so it will fit on a 45” width of fabric that I already have. There is a lot of embroidery in this quilt and I am going to concentrate on the flower ring for these classes. I have done simple embroidery but I’m looking forward to learning new stitches. Instructions said to outline the two inner circles with a running stitch but I am using a chain stitch.
I am thinking I will do a mirror image of the half a tree on the other side of the flying geese triangles, and make the bottom half an under water scene. But by the time
I get to it, might totally change. HelenWLast edited by Helen W.; 12-14-2021, 10:53 AM.
