Stitch Play Bookmark:
This bookmark combines some of my favorite stitches - roseground, honeycomb, and spiders - with Torchon ground and cloth stitch diamonds.

Grounds 1:
This exercise includes several basic Torchon grounds that are often used as background grounds.
(cloth stitch or linen ground, torchon ground, Dieppe ground, twisted hole ground, and double torchon ground)

Grounds 2:
This exercise includes several Torchon grounds that are often used as decorative grounds.
(rose ground, left triangular ground, honeycomb ground, right triangular ground, and cane ground)

Grounds 3:
This exercise combines the grounds in Grounds 1 & 2, putting the decorative grounds in diamonds within the background grounds.

Download prickings for Grounds 1, 2, and 3 as one page here.

Roseground Variations 1:
This exercise is a recipe for trying out various standard rose ground variations. It has a table of 18 variations you can combine into groups of 6 to see how they look.
