I'm guessing this would be a back stitch. It was pretty easy and nice to pick up and work on in the evenings or during a few minutes while the babies were napping. I did consult a book I had for doing a French knot for dotting some of the letters and punctuation. Don't think I got that exactly right but close.:-) This was fun so I want to try my hand at a little more embroidery! So my advice to you is to just try it! I'm sure there are websites available with more professional instructions.:-)Mary Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03129793790973176351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14734790.post-80768758322549892822011-08-26T11:52:31.412-04:002011-08-26T11:52:31.412-04:00great idea! maybe you could outline the EAT with ...great idea! maybe you could outline the EAT with a black sharpie??? i have only done x-stitch too, but i'd love to try my hand at embroidering a verse. any tips? did you go to a website to learn? which stitch did you use? i remember my grandma trying to teach me to embroider when i was probably 7 or 8. so maybe i could pick it up again =)gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299794555004077235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14734790.post-43074672657952259052011-08-25T21:51:16.477-04:002011-08-25T21:51:16.477-04:00It looks so great, Mary Ann!
