Week 1: Chain Stitch
I used Sharon Boggon's Stitching Templates to create this crazy quilt motif and used the chain stitch to create flower stems.
Flowers were created with sets of 5 detached chain stitches.
Leaves were created with fly stitches.
I also used the fly stitch to embellish a crazy quilt seam. Each fly stitch created a flower stem with leaves and pink glass seed beads created tiny flower buds.
Thank you for stopping by. I am wishing you all a fantastic week!

How nice to see one of your cq blocks again.
You have proved that Fly Stitch can be great for leaves, as well as individual flowers.
Ah, food for the soul! Beautiful work!
These challenges are so much fun and you get a lovely unique piece of embroidery at the end too.
Great to see you using the templates ! I have a big silly grin on my face
Sharon, I love using them. Thank you soooo much! :)
Hello Renee Dear. Your stitches are lovely and I do love your pinks, greens and black. Happy Easter and Spring.
