Here are the last six of my little trees!! I have worked quite a bit this weekend taking the time for slow stitching over other items on the "to do" list. I have enjoyed this series of little trees and they all have a unique look which will work well into a quilt. #1 - curved lines in back stitch in a variety of green emboridery thread, l#2 - ine of blue chain stitch with the spaces filled in with seed stiches, #3 - outline in stem stitch with spaces filled with linear running stitch, #4 - pink star stitch on the white polka dots encircled with circles in stem stitch and stab stitched in green on the edges, #5 - edges done in fly stitch and the internal elements highlighted with colour coordinated seed stiches and french knots, #6 - Outer edge done in red blanket stitch which is echoed to the inside in yellow and green and the interior area filled in with french knots in the same colours.
I am linking this post to Sunday Slow Stitching @ KathyQuilts. Always lots of inspiration on this blog so take a bit of time to check it out.

Pretty little trees, wonder where they will end up?
