Another buzy day, including such dreaded jobs as defrosting and cleaning out the fridge but all the work has been worth it because the house looks good and even feels a little organized…My son arrived this evening and it has been lovely to see him.
I have used this idea before with straight stitches but it works just as well with buttonhole stitch…I have used a fine thread (2 strands cotton floss) so that I could use a small enough needle to fit throught the beads which are threaded on as you work the buttonhole stitch…As I worked the seam the black beads were looking a bit flat so I added the red beads to give the seam a little zing…The beads move along the stitches and are fun to play with.
