TAST 2010

I am happy to tell you all that i have taken up TAST 2010 by Sharon boggon. TAST means take a stitch on tuesday. Each week she will teach us a stitch and we will have to explore the possibilities that the stitch holds.
this week it is DIAMOND STITCH

And these are my trials

1. a simple diamond stitch

2. i have wrapped a contrast colour thread here

3.used daisy stitches to embellish

4. Here i have used individual stitches to form a diamond




5. I have used this stitch in a center block of my bed linen


how did you all like it????????
sonie,Sarah and Doreen have also done some beautiful samples. please do have a look at them.......it may inspire you to do more:-)

If you are interested please have a look at TAST 2010

  2. Hi Veena - Nice work! I enjoy stitching too although I don't have much time for it... I find it very meditative.
