I had a good stitching week (seven squares) in spite of time spent finishing my Christmas cards. I made a total of 50 with 5 different designs. I'm glad that is behind me even though I love making them.
I made four squares using my stencils and three that were labor intensive using pistol stitch (a French Knot with a tail) and regular French knots.

These are so fun! I love the last few where the circle is still there but they've evolved to be a little more freeform. I did some (like only 4 or 5) small embroidered squares in a similar vein to these several years ago and then stopped, but I was recently thinking I needed to start another hand stitching project, so maybe it's time to get them back out!!
Nice work!
Hi Norma, those are lovely blocks - the pistol stitch is so versatile. Take care.
