Hi all
Hope all are doing great. Two days back I have posted the tutorial for doing Double Cast on Stitch. Today I am happy to share with you a design to practice that stitch.
For this design I have used pearl cotton threads. This is the first time I am using pearl cotton thread for doing surface embroidery. First let us see the stitched design.
Pattern for the design
------------------------------
The leaves of this design are stitched using fishbone stitch. First I have stitched the leaves and then moved on to stitch the flowers.
While stitching the flowers I have first made the double cast on stitch along the lines and then stitched another inbetween the lines. Then stitched french knots with 1 wrap inside the centre of the flowers. For the flowers and french knots I have used two strands of pearl cotton thread, for leaves one strand of thread is used.
For other stitch tutorials and designs click here. Tomorrow I will be back with a crochet mandala I have crocheted for my online store. Till then have a nice day.
The Cast On Stitch has a lot of texture, and if you do it with two stands of perle it will be very rich indeed.
