41. Eastern Stitch

No, this stitch is definitely not suitable for my flower print. It doesn’t even look like Eastern Stitch. But I did try.

39. Coral Stitch

Coral Stitch, on the other hand, is very useful on my print. It can be used both as a filling stitch and as an outline stitch. Besides it looks nice and is easy to sew.

At first I tried a red line inside this flower

image

Then I hid the black line inside the blue edge of this flower. After that I used the stitch as a filling stitch.

38. Cloud Filling Stitch

I do try to find a place for every stitch in the TAST challenge on my Paradise Flower print. Cloud Filliing Stitch was really difficult. This is the best I could come up with; no area filled with stitches but a narrow edge with the same technique as Cloud Filling.

35. Threaded Cable Chain Stitch

I am not very fond of threaded stitches. Threaded Cable Chain Stitch is no exeption. In this case a ligther and thicker thread would have been better. I might try again some other time.

34. Oyster Stitch

I really liked Oyster Stitch. It covers the black print well and fits many small areas needing a new approach. I will certainly use this stitch in the future.image
