The apron

I finished the apeon for my sister.  She liked it very much!  She thought the inside was as pretty as the top.

Detached Chain Stitch

I pray Carol Leather doesn't behead me for murdering her strawberry at http://www.needlework-tips-and-techniques.com/lazy-daisy-stitch.html .  I am going to try it again after I get a little proficient at embroidery.  The strawberry was done in 5 coton perle and  the fireworks were done with stranded cotton.

couching

Over at http://stitchinfingers.ning.com/group/stitchjunkies I am learning or relearning new stitches.  This is my couching sampler.

This is my try at the chevron stitch.  The fibers and scraps of fabric were given to me so I have no way of naming them.  Some are plain to see but most are not.  This is fun and after I learn a few stitches I figured I would get serious! :-)
