TAST Stitch 68


TAST Stitch 68 was the Woven Zig Zag Chain Stitch. Looking at the stitch, I could picture a seam of holly leaves.


I thought using waste canvas would help keep my stitches even.


It appeared to be working. 


Unfortunately, I failed to line the dark blue line of the canvas up with the seam, as I thought I had done. Removing the waste canvas revealed the zig zag chain stitch above.


So, I pulled the stitches out and tried again, just eyeballing the distance between stitches.


Size 8 green perle cotton was used to create the woven zig zag chain stitch above.


Clusters of 3 red seed beads created holly berries.

TAST stands for Take a Stitch Tuesday. It is a personal stitching challenge offered by Sharon B. at Pintangle.com. You may read more about TAST here and find the Facebook group here.
