Re: Agi's stitching
Both are beautiful!!! I'd love to learn all those new stitches that you have on the sampler. And that multi-pane flower design you are working is going to be terrific!

Re: Agi's stitching
Love that sampler!
Are those stitches difficult to do? I rather fancy trying something like that.
And the floral design is very pretty - what a good idea to cut out a paper template to make sure you place them correctly!

Re: Agi's stitching
No, most of them are not difficult. I have this book in Hungarian, use it a lot (that's why I don't always know the names of the stitches ) and also look for stitch instructiuns on the net.
But if I could start it again, I would use an evenwave not Aida, some stitches would be easier. But I wanted to use something I already had, not to spend money. (we need a "broke" smiley )

Re: Agi's stitching
Both projects are beautiful, and your sampler will be a great "look-up book"!
Edited
I just realised I've got that book too, my MIL gave it to me as a birthday present last year!

Re: Agi's stitching
I love both of these Agi. There is something lovely about the colours you are using in both of them. They are lovely and soft.

Re: Agi's stitching
Love the crazy patchwork and your sampler is really cool
Re: Agi's stitching
That stitches sampler is simply stunning Agi. You must be very artistic to have arranged the pattern and colours so well. The flowers are also great.
Re: Agi's stitching
Love your sampler & can't wait to see your flowers all done xx

Re: Agi's stitching
Update on the nature project - I worked on this on UFO wek but didn't do too much.
Got the three bottom projects done:
Close ups:
These two come from a free pattern by Mary Hickmott, Nture's Harvest.
I wanted to stitch a leaf from one of the recent New Stitches, but the size wasn't right, so I had to redraw it a bit. Stitched with a variegated thread with a technique I also learned from an old New Stitches, starting in the middle with the darker shade of the thread and then playing around with the color changes. I think it turned out not bad if I may say so myself
And the whole picture so far:
Only three small parts missing from the top section. I have to find something to put there since my old computer is still not working and I don't find those freebies I have saved on it and planned to use. Probably two more flowers and another green leaf.
