Kutch Work design 2

 Hi all,

Today I am here to share with you another simple design to practice a kutch work motif.  It is formed using continuous diamonds which takes the shape of a cross.  It is also known as maltese cross.  In between the kutch motif I have added algerian eyelet stitch which can be done in straight stitches.   Have a look at the design.

The outer two lines are done using running stitch.

Algerian eye stitch

This is a cover for my Laptop which I have made using Algerian Eye stitch.  The red color around is
Algerian Eye stitch and green color in between is double cross stitch.  For the edging I have worked a line of chain stitch around and done single crochet around that chain.  Then  I have done v-st in crochet in alternate single crochets.(v-st = double crochet(dc), chain1, dc in same stitch).

This is the closeup of the edging and algerian eye stitch.

All the photos have been uploaded in the opposite direction.  so please bear with me.

Happy Embroidering and crocheting.
