From the day I started to do embroidery, long and short stitch always fascinates me. I have come across the long and short stitch tutorials in needlenthread site. Long time back i have bookmarked the pages and a few weeks backs the time came and I have tried Lesson 6 of long and short stitch. The result is below. I have used 1 strand of Anchor embroidery thread. Have a look.
Waiting for your feedbacks and suggestions. Next I thought of trying a flower using long and short shading.
In my next post I will write about knitting, my new hobby.
Nice job! Long and short stitch totally intimidates me!
