TAST-Cretan Stitch

It was back to catching up with TAST this week, but before I moved on to Cretan stitch, I decided to try and see the effect of working feather stitch in rows.  One side is done going the same way, the other in the opposite direction.  It was interesting seeing the shape of the intersections with the different directions.
Another hexagon was used to do a leaf in Cretan stitch, which I didn't find easy at all


I had made up another piece of silk and lace to work on
The first stitch was a line of open Cretan stitch

This was easier to work, and more pleasing to my eye.  Now onto this weeks stitch

Stitched Sunday-Cretan Stitch

This is the last of the Stitched Sunday pages
Now it's time to work out how to put them altogether and make a book, another first for me
