That's a lovely stitch!
Very pretty little stitch!
Hi Anita!
What a subtle stitch. Very nice. What do you use it for?
@ Gembirdie - I use this one as a detached filling stitch like we do with daisy stitch or french knots and also fill some of the squares in trellis stitch.
@ Carol - Happy Easter to you too Carol. Have fun with this stitch!
I've stitched the fly stitch many times but never with an added twist tie. Great tutorial and pictures. Thanks!
I must try this also. Neat and simple.
