These were the first stitches I learned. After I practiced, I just kept this piece on the hoop and kept filling in the space. I actually like it though. i think I'll make something out of it.
I just started working on this absolutely gorgeous sampler, and I've been really enjoying it so far! It's great practice and will make a beautiful piece to hang in my apartment. Love it! : )
Pattern: Daisychain ABCs by Alicia Paulson.
Just a few lines of stitching this week as lots of variations were done on a fabric postcard for the 2007 challenge.

As I look at all of the photos of fiber art by fabulous Flickr artists, I find myself inspired to try new ideas, learn new things. So This is my sampler of embroidery stitches, It is not in the traditional way some samplers are made.. Im not really a traditional girl.
The fabric is from Ikea, it is mostly black and white line drawings, a perfect thing to practice on.
Thanks for the inspiration all of my dear flickr contacts :) You are are all so talented and Im glad to know you via the web.

Three panels sewn together. These are the "yardage" that a pair of pants will be made out of...well, plus one more panel that's not shown here. Tammy has actually finished the pants, but I'm way behind on taking and loading pictures and someone asked to see these when I could get them up...so here ya go. This is a composite of pictures of each panel seperately. Oh, the elephant should get uploaded this evening...(I hope!)
A welcome present for the new minister at my unitarian universalist church. Images original me (pretty much freehand.)
Quote from Colbert Report:
"Reason has been a part of organized religion ever since two nudists took dietary advice from a talking snake."
It's a real "sampler", in that I used a lot of stitches I hadn't tried before. (see notes on that image.)

Check out the different versions that our writers and readers have been stitching! From left to right: arrow stitch, sheaf filling stitch, seeding, granito stitch, detached wheatear stitch, cross-stitches, and ermine stitch. The dividing lines are coral stitch, chain stitch, back stitch, stem stitch, split stitch, Portuguese stem stitch, and my whole garden is fenced in by back stitched chain stitch.

Here are a few sneak peeks of a vintage lace sampler I have just finishedt. I am not showing it in its entirety as I am submitting it for publication in the next Sew Somerset magazine and don't want to give too much away yet. (Lots of 20 minute sessions!)
