TDiTM Stitch 54




Reference: Twelve Dozen Stitches in Twelve Months

This is a simple little 3-loop stitch…and I’ve added a round bead nestled in a cup sequin.

You might not be able to see the cool lime green…but it really is fun!

Gosh, I’ve sure leaped away from my favorite pink!!

Now, orange is not my favorite of colors…but I had some funky little orange beads…from a vintage necklace I found in my aunt’s costume jewelry.

It’s a little different with the rounds and the boxes…but I like it.

I just love this aqua color! After stitching the detached chain stitches, I remembered that I had some aqua dagger beads…so overstitched one on top of the chains. And seed beads were used instead of the French knots.

We’re going to continue our chain half circles for a few more…and experiment with a few accent beads.

This version substitutes the French knot stitches for tiny bugle beads. And a simple cup sequin and bead accents the circles. Also a larger bead is at the intersection.
