Xandra's Tree of Stitches SAL FINISHED 16/10

XandraS · Post by **XandraS** » Mon Sep 12, 2011 10:57 am

I finally got around to stitching part 7 - Jerusalem stitch, and part 8, floral stitch, of my TOS. Neither was particularly hard, but I found the floral very time consuming, but definitely worth it.

I used two and three strands for both stitches, was thinking about doing the Jerusalem stitch in one strand as well but it didn't look right.

Here is the whole tree as it looks now

And here is a close-up

Looks lovely! We're up to to the same part! And yes, I also found them both easy enough to stitch, but the floral took quite a long time.

Beautiful!! The floral stitch is my next one, but I'm waiting for my silk threads to arrive--which hopefully will be later today.
Great stitching!!

I love your idea of it being like the White Tree of Gondor.

This is the first time I have seen the Tree of Stitches as I have been absent from here. I think it is beautiful and you are doing a fantastic job of all the different sttiches.
