TAST Week - 4 - Cretan stitch

Hi Friends,
I'm posting the first post of Week -4 of Sharon's TAST challenge. The work is still in progress, I'm posting as I stitch along. This is the design I choose to stitch.

 First flower  filled with Cretan Stitch

I have done one more motif on cretan stitch, you see it here. After posting the photos, I have a doubt, have I done the right stitch, or not?

Cheers

Savitha.

Hi Friends,
Here are some of my experiments on Feather Stitch for TAST 2012 week 3.  Its a free hand embroidery without any tracing of designs. This is my first attempt and turned out better. It is a Thorny bush with little blooms.

I have made the floor also with feather stitch.but a little bit messy. turned out well.
