I liked doing this stitch but had a few problems with the second row for a few minutes but then it all fell into place.
The first sample is on my Crazy quilt block and isn't finished completely as I want to add some beads to it at a later date when I do the beading bits.
If I add the beads now my threads will get hooked up in them when doing the next rows of stitches.
I think this would also look nice with a ribbon threaded underneath it.
The next lot of stitches are samples experimenting with different threads and fabrics.
The first one is Perle 5-- but I changed the width of the diamonds alternately.
And this one is on the same fabric but with perle 8 thread.
This one is the same Perle 8 thread but on a dress linen fabric.
It's so nice to be doing TAST again thanks Sharon.

Looks fun Doreen, I love your variegated threads
Hi dorren, i wonder what you will do with these little gems... i like the one with different length stitches.

Looks like an interesting stitch with lots of different possibilities.
its lovely Doreen..
isn't it amazing how sharon keeps coming up with more and more stitches. You'll have quite the selection when you finish.
woohoo doreen!!
my fingers are getting tangled in the thread w. this one:(
nice shot yours.
Just catching up with what you have been up to - great pictures of the flood damage at the beach - sounds as if you had a lovely rest though. Great stitches - I really admire your patience!
I hadn't heard of this stitch either Doreen but it is very attractive and perfect for crazy patchwork. It's nice to have a good variety of stitches apart from good old herringbone and feather stitch.
You did more than I did. It's an interesting stitch.
Your samples are lovely. I really like the one with the different widths.
This stitch doesn't look all that easy for a first stitch Doreen (I had a peep at Pin Tangle)
Oh - your samples are so neat! Fabulous work
Sara
Hi doreen, I like the row with varying heights.
