I have spent most of today catching up on housework and starting to tidy my studio…while putting some things away I found a christmas stocking that I pieced as part of a batch in 2002…I thought that it would make a nice little project to keep me stitching while I finish cleaning and getting myself a little organized.
Herringbone Stitch, Detached Chain Stitch and beads…simple stitches that combine well to make this elegant seam.

I love the colors you are combining! Color really has a lot to do with how the whole looks – I never realized just how much until I started reading your blog. I love the green thread in the herringbone. Is that a perle 5, or does it look larger because it’s a close-up? I really like your camera – you get the best close-ups!
