TAST 128: Interlaced Up and Down Buttonhole

This was a fun stitch to create.  I used pink and black size 8 perle cotton.  I do plan to use this stitch (with different spacing and colors) in the future. 

I really want to add beads to dress this one up, but this will be the strap to the messenger bag I am working on, so I am sticking with stitching only.

To see the two new stitches introduced this week, and to see what others have been stitching, click here - and do not forget to check out the links in the comments!

Sharon is now offering a newsletter, too. There is a link to subscribe in her WIPW post last week.  You can find it here.

Thanks for stopping by!
