Jan and Jean show the wonderful effects that may be achieved using two of their favorite stitches: Sorbello and Lock Stitch.
The knotted Sorbello Stitch is worked in thick yarns to produce a chunkier square block, and thinner fibres for a star like pattern. Layers of stitching create lifelike dimensional images.
The flexible Lock Stitch allows distortion, alteration and embellishment to build up exciting patterns. The Lock Stitch is used with a felting technique to create a complete structure.
