Take a Stitch Tuesday

Crossed Buttonhole is the next stitch from Sharon at http://pintangle.com  I try to always have some crazy quilt blocks ready for stitching in case I have to wait somewhere and had this green one. It shows the regular stitch and then two rows of it done back to back using Perle cotton. It will end up getting more stitches.

This is the experimental one. The light green is Perle Cotton 8. I used the fuzzy one over the first row and dropped down a bit. It also gets smaller as you look to the right.
