A Little Vine

It's taken me 1 yard of Lurex to do this much vine :

Edit : Not 1 yard - 10 yards! (I just looked at the packet)

I remember asking people how much gold thread I'd need for my vine approximately, and the answer got was "a lot". I didn't realize how much tho. A big lot! Thankfully Lurex is inexpensive.



doing two lines of Heavy Chain stitch to form the vine. Each stitch is across two threads.

(Note this is a pretty old photo of the sampler. My camera is definitely dead)

... another order to Tanya Berlin needed!

I won't go right up to where the completed part is - I don't want subsequent threads catching.
