My small group is making a wool album quilt for a charity auction for our local guild. I had made a block and showed it in a post last month but there was one more block kit that was not taken. The first one was so quick and fun I completed this unclaimed block this past week. The blanket stitch is done by machine with King Tut variegated threads. The stem couching was hand done with DMC wool floss. I had not ever tried the "couching" stitch but it was a great effect on the stems making them look sort of branch like.
Happy Stitching,
Cheri
