This
week’s Take A Stitch Tuesday stitch on Sharon B’s Pintangle blog is the raised
cross stitch flower. First I tried it
out using perle cotton in #3, #5, #8, and #12.
I think it looks best in the thicker threads.
Next I
tried it in 5 mm cotton ribbon, Frosty Rays, Sparkle Rays, and silk ribbon.
This is an easy and quick stitch for a flower.

It is also a pretty one! Thank you for sharing with us how it looks in different threads.
Congratulations on your 500th post, and wishing you many more happy moments in Japan to blog about.
Very nice! I think they are all good. I like fine thread, but I think it really depends on what we are making with them.

Congratulations on 500 posts! I have enjoyed all of them. The TAST stitch this week is really interesting looking - like a small couturier button.
The way your thickest threads worked up, I think the flowers look like bobbles -- that could be fun in some projects, too. Congrats on 500!
