What a gorgeous piece! Is festoon stitch the filling stitch in the middle?

Yes, it is. It is sort of the nuclear option of stitches, because it includes just about everything you can think of, including a spider web. But very effective. It is described well in the Anchor Book of Hardanger Embroidery. (And not to be confused with the same named stitch for pulled work!)

Back to Sugar and Lace. All the stitching is done and now the scary stuff starts. Finishing. Not only do I have to cut away from the buttonhole stitch (ok, that's pretty usual in Hardanger), but then I have to deal with lining fabrics, vilene and..... ribbon!
So naturally, I've put it away for a bit so I can have a good think once my worktop is clear. As you do. (Coward, I know.)
