I've recently dragged out an old cross stitch project in order to have some handwork going on. Usually my handwork is binding, but I'm enjoying doing something a little more interesting...Suzanne Earleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18385498304922239050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603032139825742973.post-67154381121177929512007-06-16T22:00:00.000-05:002007-06-16T22:00:00.000-05:00One hangs it in the kitchen to look pretty.

I am using all 6 strands at the moment, but that is because I'm stem stitching names and words onto a quilt and if I use 3 or less they won't stand out.Clarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09344963200919601488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603032139825742973.post-17053420335946806752007-06-14T01:19:00.000-05:002007-06-14T01:19:00.000-05:00Nice progress on both the jacket and stitchery!Nice progress on both the jacket and stitchery!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05365964667029948020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603032139825742973.post-37232541481669199902007-06-13T21:33:00.000-05:002007-06-13T21:33:00.000-05:00Well done on the stitchery it is a cute little pat...Well done on the stitchery it is a cute little pattern.<BR/>I only ever use two strands at the most and one for fine detail. I agree with you that it looks bulky in six strands. <BR/>Your stitching is very good.

Like May Britt I only use 2 strands of embroidery thread unless the design calls for 3. Some I use stem stich, but most are now done with back stitch. Enjoy your new found hobbie, it's very addictive.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04757554177443434903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603032139825742973.post-21505080045701089872007-06-13T17:26:00.000-05:002007-06-13T17:26:00.000-05:00Line a basket...and look like a goddess of domesti...Line a basket...and look like a goddess of domesticity next time you go to a picnic!<BR/>That jacket will be gorgeous, but I know what you mean, something new sparks us up!
