Blog EntryMotif 25 - Josephine (Spiral) ChainsSep 10, '07 5:29 PM
for everyone

I wanted to do something special for the last one but when I was checking the techniques I noticed that I forgot this one. This technique is called Josephine Chains or Spiral chains. Its like the Josephine Knots. To make the spirals you just need to repeat the same 1/2 stitch over and over, dropping the shuttle every 5-10 hds and it will spiral alone. If you repeat the first half stitch it will spiral clockwise and if you repeat the second half stitch it will spiral counter-clockwise.

I hope you enjoyed this presentation. It was really a challenge to come with 25 motifs using 25 different techniques. I'll do this challenge again but will change the theme. I'm not sure yet what will be, but I know it will be original and fun to do! Thanks for reading.
