Skip T Stitch
This one is the lovely Fire & Iris’ fave background stitch & I can see why.
Super quick coverage, a dash of movement & great for starting stitchers. It’s a winner!
#needlepoint
Happy #stitchmonday to you!
Reverse Brick Stitch
I’m working on a huge piece at the moment with one big section worked in Brick stitch.
It’s only been doing it on such a large scale that I started to pay attention to the back of it, it’s gorgeous!!!!
Blimey it’s fine around fast and it’s #stitchmonday again!
Mod Screen
This is such a classy background stitch and it’s so satisfying to stitch up.
Gives you high impact in such an easy way. 😎

Happy #stitchmonday to you.
I’ve been waiting to share this …
Balloon Stitch variation
With my Appletons neon yellow next to me all I could see was little tennis balls. Perfect T for the start of Wimbledon!

My favourite day of the week, it’s #stitchmonday
Heart Columns
The perfect stitch for a bit of background flair.
And works rather well to showcase the Summer tapestry wool palette from Appletons

Did you have a lovely weekend? It was super sunny here in the U.K. and it feels fitting to share this stitch.
Grass Stitch
Looks exactly like its name, works brilliantly in two colours but would look exceptionally good on variegated thread.

Here’s to another glorious week of stitching, It’s #stitchmonday time!
Sandhills
Seems fitting as the weather gets nicer that I start to share a few seasonally appropriate stitches.
Stitched in shades from the Appletons Spring palette.

It’s a Bank Holiday here in the U.K. so before I go off and relax for the day here’s a #stitchmonday
Split Scotch Stitch
Such a simple variation on traditional Scotch Squares but wow do I love it!!!
Stitched in Appletons Wool Spring palette 🥰
#needlepoint
It’s that time again! #stitchmonday
Eyelet Stars
I love a layered stitch where you can mix it up with your threads.
This stitch would look amazing with metallics too & you could totally add in some hidden glow in the dark threads. How cool would that be!!!

Layered Oblique Crosses
As this is such a tight stitch I decided to step away from tapestry wool & see how the Paintbox Threads did on this 12ct canvas.
I’m really impressed with the coverage (two strands on the purple, one stand on the mint).

Rise & shine it’s #stitchmonday
Elongated Cashmere Steps
Makes a wonderful background stitch.
I’m loving using the Appletons Spring palette, this combo is really giving me fresh peach vibes.

Bank Holiday #stitchmonday time!
Balloon Stitch
There are loads of amazing variations of this one that I’ll be trying out, I just love its dotty effect.
Cute for snow, sports canvases, sky details.
#needlepoint
It’s #stitchmonday again, doesn’t it roll round fast!
Nite Knotters
I found this one on Needlepoint Nation Notebook, say that five times fast! 😆
Definite Bargello vibes with this one.
