TAST Week 33 is Scroll Stitch…I started with a seam of the basic stitch.
Then I did 2 rows of scroll stitch intertwining them as I worked the 2nd row.
In the seam allowance of a block I experimented with how it would flip from side to side, twisting the needle another 180 degrees to put more wraps into the knot and with making the stitch in the scroll longer…the later ideas didn’t work as the scrolls tended to unwind but…
I did quite like this seam using the scroll stitch flipped from side to side.

Annie, what a delight that row in the second photo is. I’ll have to try it. I tried more wraps, too. The most I could get was two full wraps. I’m not too sure how they’ll hold up.

Thanks for showing your experiments, too. I like the two twisted together, as that shows an interesting textural addition, and I like the last one, especially in that thread. You’ve done a great job of keeping up every week!
