Chapter 5


                                                  
                                                      This is me, stitching the colour circle.





Chapter 4






 This sample didn't scan well; the background print seems too dominant  or the choic of threads too subtle, so I have included some digital camera images  to show the stitches more clearly.

 This is a section from my Pattern Directory.  I followed Valerie Campbell-Harding's advice in "Stitched Patterns" and worked through all the stitches on my  machine.  It's a great reference for selecting stitches as the printed card with the machine doesn't do justice to the patterns.


Module One Chapter 1 addition

This page shows the answers to questions I missed from the first posting.  I have added the details of the paintings too.

Chapter 3






I really enjoyed this chapter; it presented the opportunity to use lots of threads from my stash!

Chapter 2





 the top image, using metallic threads may not be very clear, so i have included an enlarged digital phot o, just in case.
