I have been browsing the blogs all month seeing what people have been doing with the February stitch explorer challenge trellis stitch. If you have not been following closely make a cuppa, take a break, and check out what people have been doing with stitch as here is a bit of a round up.
Elizabeth of Quieter Moments as usual has produced inspiring sample, after inspiring sample.
Annie Whitsed Annies Crazy World has created a little hat, a cup and a teddy.
In the meanwhile, Leena of Creative Instincts got carried away with using it to attach shisha, creating flowers and fish!
Connie over on Scoop Score and Deal also got carried away
Saskia produced a pot for a pot plant!
Tenar is using the stitch to produce a rock pool
Raphaela of Textile Explorations incorporated beads
Miriam of Borduurblog has used trellis stitch to work highly textured patterns and create little hats!
Leslie of Greasyming worked her sample on checked fabric with interesting results.
Coeur de freesia has worked a delightful daisy motif and explored the stitch producing some interesting samples
Annet over on Fat quarter has used trellis stitch as the center of a daisy and worked it on a crazy quilt block
Valerie also worked a daisy which you can see on her flickr site
Mandie of Stitches and Whimsies explored working a heart shape
There are loads of experiments and ideas over on the flickr Stitchexplorer group.
After some frustrating starts Maureen succeeded with the stitch
Jane of Quodlibet has experimented with the stitch and worked some samples so did Sandy of Focus on fiber
Nancilyn of Mindbloggings has also made some interesting explorations of the stitch
Kay Susan of S’Mockery Sm’Art has used the stitch on a purse
Mady also discovered she liked this stitch and has a good few entries about it in her blog Snow days
As often happens one stitch leads to another and Lin Moon of Purple fan has written a tutorial on how to do raised cup stitch which like trellis stitch is a highly textured and with it you can produce a delightful flower cup
I have loved looking at all the trellis stitch pics – there are some wonderful and innovative interpretations!
