With stitches for the stem and apple, the Back-to-School project is complete.
Stitch the stem in Four-way Continental, below, using Rainbow Linen.
Stitch the apple in Caswell Stitch, below, using four strands of red-orange Planet Earth Stranded Silk. Caswell Stitch is similar to Criss-cross Hungarian with uits that alternate direction. Cswell Stitch has bigger units with longer stitches.
This project will be one of five projects in my upcoming printed book, Right from the Beginning, revised and expanded. It will be out late in 2022 at Amazon. Starting Monday, coverage of Fall new products.
