New Stitches ....

I've spent the last year or so endeavouring to expand my repertoire of stitches .... here are a few ... practised/ devised on card as I am too frugal to waste a book block .... 


Bowles Braid ... I am certain that plaiting long stitches, whilst sewing the book block, has been done before ... I've looked and looked ... but can't find any examples... so for today ... can we call it Bowles Braid?

A couple of Hardanger stitches applied to the spine .... 



Stitches in situ, and off to a new stockist in Thirsk ....
