Anne of Green Gables is back

 

Kyoko Maruoka of GERA! has now dedicated a third design to one of her beloved books, Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery. You can now stitch Anne's surroundings - the farmhouse and barn, as well as her friends house, the church and schoolhouse.

Focus on a stitch: Fan stitch variation

 

variation of Fan stitch as used in Procrastination by Tempting TanglesTempting Tangles designs are always full of fun creative needlework ideas. The designer excels at finding the exact stitch that emphasizes her point and adds excitement to the stitching.

Picture the water droplets leaking from the faucet in Procrastination. These are worked in a variation of Fan stitch, and perfectly mimic the heavy drops flooding the room.

This Fan stitch variation is an easy stitch comprised of 7 straight stitches.

The beauty of counted stitching, is that you can easily add decorative specialty stitches. Unlike free-hand embroidery, your needle is guided by the fabric. You need only follow the chart and will get the exact finished effect that the design calls for.
