Hem Stitching & the Norwich Stitch


Two more new stitches accomplished on my mystery sampler.  I remember seeing my grandmother hem stitching but this was a first for me.  The instructions were easy and straight forward so I quickly caught on to how to do it.  After the hem stitching I worked on the middle portion counted thread stitch known as either the Norwich or Waffle stitch and I think it has quite a nice look to it.  The next section is for us to design on our own which will be a lot of fun.  I have a few ideas floating around my head and hope to get it done by our next stitchery guild meeting on Tuesday.
