Thank you for this step-to-step tutorial. I'm always glad to compare techniques and ideas to do things with fetl. I'm also always douting about the kind of stitch to use :P

Bugs and Fishes said...

Thanks for the comments, everyone! :)

Marion - I love the idea of this design being scaled up and used as a tea cosy. I think it could be a lovely design to applique onto a cushion cover, too!

Machanguita - different stitches do create such different looks, don't they! I use whip stitch a lot when creating designs like this, but I often stitch samples to test out how different stitches look before I sew a whole project :)
