Not quite as I planned – Detail 194 March 11th, 2007

Chevron Stitch

chevron stitch in visual diaryWell this stitch did not go quite as I planned. I had planned to do the chevron variation sketch from the page in my visual journal for Chevron Stitch from TAST week 5 But when I pulled my first choice of thread through the red fabric it resisted and pulled threads in the fabric, I was doing it at a friends house and had only taken a limited number of threads and the only one fine enough to go through the eye of a smaller needle turned out to be a hard to manage rayon thread…I persisted to the end of the seam but the stitching ended up a bit wonky and if I had tried to mirror the stitch on the other side of the seam the wonks would have been exagerated so I decided that I would be best off finishing the seam simply with beads, I did give it a little interest by adding extra beads in the spaces.
