New start and finishes.

Post by olgk30 »

This is my new start Love and Laughter by Madart on 14c with three threads. I like the coverage with three threads. Here is full picImage

This one is by Bothy Thread. Stitched it for my sister and framed it.

Pirate ship, also by Bothy Treads, hated the backstitch but very happy with the results.

I guess this is it. Thanks for looking.

I love each one. So very pretty. I have not seen the stitching where the thread hangs in front of your work like that. Interesting? Where might I learn about this way to stitch? Your work is lovely.

Thank you.
This method of stitching is called parking. I don't follow all the rules I do what works for me for this particular project. It works really well with difficult areas where you have lots of confetti. I learned from youtube videos and from Tips & Tricks from this forum. I hope that helps.
