These two patches were stitched using Ty-Di’s Just Cotton, a thread that is no longer made.
Stitch the left patch in Claret, below. It’s similar to Diane’s (or Helen’s) Lace, but is more open.
Stitch the right patch in Deuce, below. Columns alternate between Reverse Tent and Diagonal Gobelin.
Next week finishes our summer stitch-along.
