Day 96

We really are on the count down toward the end of the series now. This seam treatment started life as a piece hand dyed lace that was in the form of a row hearts. As you can see the hearts are upside down and have three detached chain stitches attached to them. A seed bead is in the middle of the cluster of chain stitches.

At the V of the heart is a row of larger black beads. I chose the same thread that I worked the detached chain stitches on the V of the heart, to work around the black beads in Fly Stitch tied with a detached chain stitch.

Detached chain stitches with a long tail are stitched either side of the black beads and a bead which looks like a cluster of four seed beads was stitched between the detached chain stitches.
