Filed under: Sun Flower with David McCaskill at Fireside Stitchery

David McCaskill is coming into town this weekend for classes at Fireside Stitchery. I’m looking forward to his tips/tricks class on Saturday. I couldn’t attend when he spoke to our chapter in Nov 09 & everyone that went enjoyed it. And, this will be an expanded full-day version!

I am making good progress on the petals & have the first 6 done (the little one on the left counts as the first petal). Once I got into a rhythm, the green began to fill in between the petals quicker. For that area, David recommended using a skip tent stitch so that it would cover the holes from the back. I had hoped to get all the petals done. We’ll see how it goes!
