TAST Week 25 Highlights

This week many people enjoyed Cable Chain stitch as they had not tried it before. Once again I took far too long trying to decided what samples to feature. It is really difficult each week as many are so good. Follow some of the links in the comments, on week 25 as there is many more interesting interpretations and explorations of Cable Chain stitch to be seen.

Lakshmi of Hand Embroidery from Sadalas wrote a tutorial adapting what we call magic chain to cable chain

Annet over on Fat Quarter also wrote a tutorial Cable chain stitch: How to continue with a new thread

Lots of people used Cable Chain around the neck of a figure.

    Hi Sharon,
    TAST has been most valuable and I keep returning to it as I work through the Sumptuous Surface Embroidery. The highlights help so much as to how stitches look in different fabric, designs, threads. Thank you for posting the photos.
