STITCH OF THE MONTH - AUGUST

 Hi Everyone

Thank you for the contributions to the French Knot challenge. We didn't get ourselves tied up in knots, although I did regret stitching on to paper!

The stitches for September are Fly Stitch and Feather Stitch. That might suggest  birds but of course those stitches will be used by you for all manner of design and creations.  

Here's August's excellent work:



Beautiful cards from Angela


Adorable flowers on linen by Bernadette.  

A delicate knot garden from Bev. The whole piece measures just 2"x 2", with knots that are two strands and one twist.

Helen's clever kitchen paper-based design.

Gorgeous garden inspiration from Janet Lee

Debbie: painted collage papers on Khadi paper with hand-stitched knots.



Meriel: A pair of lovely scenes using French knots with chain stitch and straight stitch. 

And finally, this gorgeous piece from Susan, using a background printed during a session with Margaret Richards.   


Looking forward to seeing what you come up with in September.  

Bye for now!
