Sharon,
What delicous samples these are, makes me wish I could crazy quilt but the hands won’t take the sewing.

Hi Sharon,
I remember my grandmother trying to teach me how to do FK’s back when I was about 8 years old. I finally got the hang of them about 5 years ago! I will attempt to write a tutorial on my technique for doing FK’s this week.
Love your samples! They are so beautiful!

ciao sharon,
questo è uno dei miei punti preferiti.
credo che questa volta proverò a cimentarmi anch’io in questa sfida.
è un punto che mi piace usare anche con le perline e con il silk ribbon.

I’m sorry, no french knots yet, but a very belated crossed buttonhole stitch: http://tenar72.wordpress.com/2007/06/12/tast-21-crossed-buttonhole-stitch/
sorry for announcing it here, but I think back in the crossed buttonhole stitch thread no one would notice it.

Don’t faint Sharon but I have done my Wheatear stitch sampler and have posted it on my blog.
Don’t worry this weeks won’t be late as French Knots are my absolute favourites.

sul mio blog ho inserito una foto di un lavoro fatto tempo fa nel quale ho utilizzato il punto nodi con il cotone moulinè, i nastri di raso e di seta.
devo provare però a fare qualcosa che lo contenga molto di più.

I’ve just updated my blog with some examples of embroideries using French Knots that I have done during the past year, including part of my latest project – a wallhanging which will include candlewicking. I love doing French Knots as you will see from the photos.

I used only French knots for a small design but I used as many threads as I could find to help decide in future what to used. I work many French knots when doing flowers.

I didn’t do anything new for french knots because I’m not done with satin stitch and weatear, but I uploaded an old embroidery that has french knots in it here: http://tenar72.wordpress.com/2007/06/18/tast-24-french-knots/.
