The first way that I played with Arrowhead Stitch was to overlap rows.
The first line is a row of arrowhead overlaid with a second row worked in the opposite direction.
The second line is a pattern formed by doing groups of 3 arrowhead stitches overlaid by a second row of groups of 3 worked in the opposite direction.
The 3rd line is memory of a wonderful night at the theater…a friend rang on Friday night, he had spare tickets for My Fair Lady on Saturday night and would I and my sister like to go…we loved to go…The hats where magnificent and I am looking for a hat charm to put on the edge.
The bottom line is a pattern formed by doing groups of 2 arrowhead stitches and overlaying them with a second row worked in the opposite direction…I cropped the image below slightly larger than the seam so that you can see the tacking stitches I do to keep the rows straight and the pencil spots I use to mark the spacing when it is to hard to count the threads.
