\"Bargello<\/a>

Bargello Panel<\/p><\/div>\n

Once I’d settled on a pattern, it fairly romped along. Ten count canvas is such a lovely rest after the forty count linen of Eve In The Garden Of Eden<\/a>!<\/p>\n

As with the Crazy Canvaswork Cushion<\/a>, I’m not buying extra wool for this, hence the row of light stitches which aren’t the same shade as the other two. Most of the thread is Paterna Persian Yarn, but the odd one out is Appletons. The texture and level of shine are different, but then, anything will be better than a sawn-off milk bottle!<\/p>\n

\"Edges<\/a>

Edges Turned In<\/p><\/div>\n

The next stage is to turn in three of the edges. I’m going to use the canvas at the bottom to help create the bottom of the bin, so I’ve left that, but the short edges will be seamed together – somehow (I’ve not solved that puzzle yet!).<\/p>\n

\"Herringbone<\/a>

Herringbone Edge<\/p><\/div>\n

I’ve learnt, over the years, that it is better to finish the folded edge of a piece of canvaswork than it is to try to fold the edge to be completely invisible.<\/p>\n

So what will be the top edge of the bin has now been finished with herringbone stitch. It creates a lovely piped effect, much denser and firmer than a simple overcast stitch, and that will be very useful to help the bin stand up!<\/p>\n
