Stitching Blogger’s Question of the Week – September 21, 2005

Today’s “Stitching Blogger’s Question” was suggested by Carol and is:

What is the most challenging specialty stitch you have ever stitched?

This one was easy for me to answer, once I thought about it long enough. Without a doubt, bullion roses are the most challenging stitch (series of stitches) for me. I practice them and they come out reasonably fine, but I’m still afraid to put them onto a real piece. I’ve been avoiding this for a year now! 🙂

    Bullions are tough to get used to. IMO. If you get a crappy looking bullion — try wrapping the fiber around the needle in the other direction. I don’t exactly know why, it was explained to me by z-twist and s-twist.

    You can always cheat — just lay in some long stitches & wrap around them!
