This week it's coming up Zigzag's over at Pin Tangle. We are learning the chevron stitch. And what a fine stitch it is. Because I get over exited about things and don't read instructions correctly it took me a while to learn.
I'm not exactly pleased with the way the colours turned out... I might add some orange or red tonight. We shall see. My stitches seem to be getting more even- so practice really does make perfect.
Looking back on my other TAST's I have noticed that I have an obsession with circles. I just like the roundness and wholeness of a circle. It's Pleasing to the eye. As if everything just flows together in a continues round.
I added some running stitch in the middle, because it's my favorite stitch and all.
Pop over here and have a look in the comments for more inspiration!
What a beautiful mandala! (Beautiful stitching too!) I'm a little obsessed with circles right now too!
