NEEDLEPOINT STITCH SAMPLES today showcasing four of my new fall collection colour combinations. All are stitched on 18 count mono canvas with size 5 perle cotton.
The top left show Colour #34, a rich blend of dark blue, green and purple. The stitch is a triangle variation. The bottom right shows Colour #35, a blend of green, brown and golden brown. The stitch is a double tied oblong cross. Colour #36 is a blend of red and dusty orange variations (top right) and the stitch is a diagonal mosaic. The bottom left show Colour #37, a vibrant blend of dusty orange and golden yellows. The stitch is a horizontal elongated Smyrna. All these stitches can be found in Volume #1 of Ruth Schmuff’s “Stitches”.
I have not included a stitch sample for Colour #38 as this is a “limited edition” colour and I will not be re-dyeing it. It is a gorgeous combination of rich dark burgundy. However, I will likely dye something similar in the future – I am currently experimenting!
I hope you enjoy my new fall collection. I will be showing some more mini projects demonstrating how these colours can be used so stay tuned. Have a great weekend.
