I do like that
I think any beginner attempting that would be put off attempting anything like it again and as for starting it on the outside .

The lattice stitches are the ones towards the inside that look like Xs. I would do this stitch again with two colours for contrast.Mabel Figworthy wrote: ↑Sun Dec 05, 2021 1:52 pm That's a beginners piece ? And I would quibble with your definition of "particularly sloppy" - it's a very respectable finish on a lovely lacy piece (just lay off the wrapped bars for a bit...)
Which are the lattice stitches? Are they like dove's eyes?

How do they expect a beginner to stitch this one? totally nuts I wouldn't try it before I had done a refresher course on hardanger.
You stitched a beautiful heirloom for sure. Well Done Serinde.

That is gorgeous. But, beginner?
You & I have very different definitions of “sloppy”.
