Chikankari class: Wave stitch

OK! Back to work on Anita’s chikankari class! I learned wave stitch (in the center of the heart). I also finished the buttonhole leaves with running stitch filling. I think the trickiest part is hiding the tails. Since the fabric isn’t opaque, I have to be extremely careful or they will show.

      Glad you like the colors. It’s been fun choosing them. The variegated thread really worked out well.

      I am slowly digging through my own enormous UFO pile.
