International Women’s Day
After I had done my diamond stitch variations I had a look around to see what others had done with the stitch and here are a few that appealed to me.
For the curved detail I have shirley’s twisted threads to thank, I love the way the Shirley used the running stitches to finish off the end.
For the vertical detail on the right I have Maureen to thank, I liked the line formed by the mixed random sized seam, looks a bit like a tall candle stick.
I have Textile Explorations to thank for both the beaded details.
The bottom detail is the result of my thinking what if I did the stitches at an angle.

Hi, Annie,
Love your stitches, particularly the row at the bottom, that is great.. It makes me think of ripples in the sea, and I am a big see embroidery fan as you have probably guessed by my reef pics, and I am very flattered that you liked the idea of the running stitches to use them as well.
I am sooooenjoying doing the Tast it is my first time.
Have a look at the garden I did in creative pictures I used all sorts of stitches for the flowers there.
I look forward to seeing more of your work.and thank you for your nice comments.
regards,
shirley
