5: SAMPLES FROM OBSERVATIONAL RECORDINGS (STITCH SAMPLES)
This
was very enjoyable – only problem with it was when to stop! And I’ve always
been a bit confused as to which stitches are ‘Strictly Canvas’! There does seem
to be quite a lot of variation in different books and, since you can use all sorts
of other stitches, I’m not absolutely sure that some of these really do count
as canvas stitches.
I
used oddments of thread, and bits of canvas left from making Christmas cards,
so most of them were worked on 10HPI, but I used 14HPI to try Rhodes stitch variations.
My samples were stitched on to black paper, which was then glued into the sketch book. And each piece was photocopied, so I could name them, without spoiling the samples.
My choices were a bit haphazard. A more organised approach would have grouped different categories of stitch together - eg crossed stitches.
