Bargello stitch - Needlepoint stitch 1, Colour sample 1

Hi all

Hope all are doing good.   Today I am happy to share with you a small embroidery piece that I wish to do some time back.  Needlepoint embroidery pieces always fascinates me.  I have done some embroidery purses using needlepoint techniques.  I have done it in tapestry canvas.  

This sample I have done it in 14 ct aida fabric.  I have developed this piece as a colour sampler too.  Whenever I start an embridery  I always get confused choosing the colours. So thought of preparing a colour sample along with a needlepoint stitch.  This is the first stitch which is known as bargello stitch.  There are so many patterns using this bargello stitch technique and this is the simplest one.

Anchor threads used

-----------------------------------

65 - Dark Pink

61 - Medium pink

300 - Cream

This is the pattern which I have used.   

This pattern can be used for purses, cushion covers etc.  I have used 6 strands for 14 ct aida.  If you are using tapestry canvas 4 strands is enough.  I will cover the canvas.  

Hope all of you like the pattern.  I have made a video tutorial for this stitch.  It is in my youtube channel.  You can click the following link to watch the video.
