TAST catch-up & BJP

TAST catch-up & BJP

Here I am with another round-up of my stitching adventures over the last couple of weeks.
My online time had been drastically reduced to almost zilch, but all is well again now and I should be back into the swing of things again soon.

I got a bit behind with my TAST stitching but I think I am all caught up again now with these following pics.

Spiral Whipped Wheel & Satin Stitch

I totally lost the plot with this stitch and ended up just 'doing-my-own-thing' with it.
I might attempt this stitch at another time when I have the instructions actually in font of me.

    I love your spiral whipped wheel. I know how to do the wheel, but how did you make it a spiral? Thanks!

  5. Thanks for visiting Linda. To make the spiral whipped wheel the "spokes" were stitched in the spiral first and then whipped. It was quite tricky to keep the whipped stitches in place but I really liked that experiment to create a different variation of the whipped wheel.
