Take a Stitch Tuesday - Inverted Feather Stitch
I found it hard to keep neat, it is a new stitch to me but I don't think I will be using it again. I put on beads to make it look a bit better and attached it to a page of my green journal that I am working on at the moment.
The stitching is on some vintage woollen fabric and that is attached to some marbled fabric which I did years ago while doing the City & Guilds embroidery course.
You MADE that marbled fabric?! Is there no end to your skill?
ReplyDeleteI have noticed that many find the Inverted Feather difficult, especially to get an even tension. You have used beads and I guess that helps to keep the thread in place. Maybe this stitch is best worked on counted fabric.
I think you're right about the stitch being best on counted fabric.
DeleteI tried lots of new techniques on the City & Guilds course, I think that is when my love of experimenting with different crafts started.
