Yesterday, the L.A.C.E. Chapter of the
International Organization of Lace had a presention + class on 2D / Disc embroidery inspired by Japanese Temari patterns.
Initially, I started the disc like a thread wrapped button!! Not the correct idea for this disc ; ) I was carrying the fiber accross the back instead of creating little stitches along the points. As it was 'pretty' as it was, did a few rounds in 2 colors.
Once I got the hang of herringbone -- I tried on top of the other pattern -- the dk reddish floss is the Herringbone Stitch -- I should have been using.
All is well, the kit had extra disc pieces to try. Extra hoop. Will enjoy this small project. I'll give it another go with herringbone - maybe the same DMC floss colors.
