January Stitch Challenge

Running Stitch

A gentle start to the Stitch Challenge this year, but one with many possibilities.  Running stitch is the foundation of so many other stitches, and as you can see from Sue’s comprehensive sample, it lends itself to many variations and applications.  It is also very relevant to our Members’ Day workshop this month: Boro Mending.

Please don’t forget to share photos of your own samples.
