Half Chevron Stitch-2

TAST-2012-Week 19-Half Chevron Stitch

Well I have been quite busy during the week on the work front. So I could only try a few stitches for my sampler. Since one of the challenges is to combine various stitches along with this stitch, I have done my sampler accordingly. Here they are:

1.  Half Chevron Stitch (HCS) with Cretan Catch Stitch and + Stitch

2. HCS laced with beads

3. HCS with Tete de Boeuf Stitch

4. Double HCS(facing each other) with beads
5. HCS with Buttonhole Wheels(half) and beads
6. HCS with Detached Chain, Beads and Stem Stitch
    

7. HCS with Wheat Ear Stitch, round and bugle beads

 8. HCS with Zig Zag Chain and Slipped Detached Chain Stitch

I am still doodling so watch out for more....

Crossed Buttonhole Stitch-2

TAST-2012-Week-18-Crossed Buttonhole Stitch 

It is very hot here with temperatures soaring to an unbearable  levels. With power cuts it is really very difficult. One feels drained and listless at the end of the day. Completing the daily chores in itself is a challenging task. Therefore I could not accomplish much though i had many ideas in my mind. 

Any way here is my second set:

Stitches with different heights, with different shades of same colour stitched one upon another, and stitches in the last two rows were stitched one way first(left to right) and then  in reverse direction stitching in the same holes.

I think it is clear form this picture. I have used two colours in the last row to make it clear.

May be I will post more some time later.....Watch out....
