This is my small sample for Knotted Feather stitch and Inverted Feather stitch. This year I thought of making a pillow cover with the TAST stitches and decided the make stitches in round shape in the pillow so that the pillow becomes a stitch sampler for me.
Inverted feather stitch is suitable for creating border and necklines. It gives a lace effect. Here I have worked with three strands of anchor cotton embroidery thread. I like to work with both the stitches and 2 more stitches gets added to my stitch list. Thanks to Sharon. For tutorials on Inverted feather stitch go here and for knotted feather stitch go here.
I really like the idea of a pillow as a showpiece for your lovely stitching.
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever idea to make a pillow of your TAST stitches.
ReplyDeleteThe Inverted Feather stitch is really good for borders.
Ps. the link you put on Sharon's comment page is incorrect
Thanks Connie, Queenie.
