TAST Week 5

Here's my version of the herringbone stitch for TAST Week 5



This time I used a template from Kathy Shaw's book, Embellishing Crazy Quilts. First I drew the zig zag line and then added the dots on either side for the stitching from the template. Actually, I printed the template from images that I had saved of templates that Kathy shares on her yahoogroup, Shawkl Blog Files.

When the TAST began, I started to look through some of my crazy quilting stitches books. I was surprised to find (so far) that I have seven books on the subject! I will make a list of them to post with next week's TAST.

  3. That is a very cool stitch - one of these days, when life slows down a bit, I'm going to give these a try! I love the different effects.
