I love to create. Often I just create a big mess. Occasionally I create something useful. On rare occasions I get really really excited. I love old buildings, especially old ruins and when I remember to take my camera out with me, I share photos.

TAST Week Two Buttonhole stitch
Week two of the TAST challenge is buttonhole stitch
I used hand dyed lightweight cotton, which allowed me to push a large needle through so I could use chunky threads. Buttonhole stitched in rows.
The second sample is a fine space dyed thread (Oliver Twist) stitched back to back.
I love the colours on these samples and the variegated buttonhole back-to-back looks great.
