Carla B. Stitch

Challenge

Uses:  Large backgrounds, Samplers

Carla B. can be a little tricky if you don't pay attention to the count.  Be sure you follow the numbers carefully and also when you work the stitches 7-12, be sure to weave the thread as you work. 

 

Also, you may notice, the crosses change directions.  Some are 7 X 6 and others are 6 X 7.  The small straight, fill-in stitches are worked in the same color or thread as the corsses.  Dots are French Knots which will be fun to work with a sparkly thread or bead.
