Good morning all you lovely people! The sun is shining here in the uk and I am on the ball this week with my TAST challenge........Knotted cretan is the stitch this week and I did struggle a little. I dont even know if I have done it right.....but alas, I am happy with the end product, which I hasten to add, I've done in double quick time this week !!!!! If I have done this stitch wrong then please forgive me........This is one stitch that I have difficulty getting my head around !!!!! This is it .............................................

ReplyDeleteHello Chris....just when you think it cant get any better you produce another stunning but oh so eye catching mandala...The pink and black with the white stitching is so dramatic and that stitch is fabulous and love the pink pearls that edge your work, your work is so neat....I am looking forward to seeing these Mandalas 'in the flesh' when we get together....

A beautiful and energetic tree, full of life and movement. I love the bead accent. The stitch is a bit diffifult as you have to make two steps, the second in mirror image, and I for one sometimes got lost from time to time. ALso you made it hard for yourself by working on felt; surely the needle got stuck in the fibers when you made the knot?
ReplyDeleteThis is a fantastic tree! All your work is gorgeous, I love it!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I'm so impressed with your work!
