Hi Sharon, still plugging away on the challenge. My latest is at http://susaneta.wordpress.com/2007/05/25/tast-crossed-buttonhole-basque-stitch-and-butterfly-chain/
where I’m starting to combine even more stitches on the same piece!

Thanks Sharon

Sharon my Crossed Button samples are at my new blog http://CrazyQstitcher.WordPress.com/
I’m hoping I can tidy up my new blog page as it doesn’t look good at present

Hi Sharon I thought I had posted to you that my samples for weeks 20 and 21 were up on my blog but something must have happened so here I am writing again.

I’ve only had a chance to use the crossed buttonhole as a simple border for a project, but I’ve loved looking at everyone else’s work. For those who haven’t looked at the Flickr group (http://www.flickr.com/groups/56846286@N00/) yet, be sure to do so, it is inspiring.

I finally decided that not taking part in TAST was counter productive to getting more stitchery done, so I’m back. My sample this week isn’t pretty so far, but I’m finding it more interesting than some of the prettier things I’ve stitched.

Hi Sharon
My crossed buttonhole is up on my blog. Really like that stitch and can see lots of uses for it.

I have posted my crossed blanket stitch sample on http://flickr.com/photos/helenad/. And of course in the flicket group site
I can see that the blanket v. buttonhole stitch debate is a bit arcane and largely dependant on geography and ones own tradition. I just can’t see using this stitch on a buttonhole but I can imagine using it to edge a blanket so for what its worth I am calling it crossed blanket stitch.
I have used the stitch on veiling net which, because you see both sides of the stitch, gives a scribbled effect.
