365 Stitch a long - day 43- boxed flower

Todays stitch is a little boxy number with a straight stitch flower and french knot bud. Found a hint to help keep your stitching evenly spaced. I cut strips of graph paper (two rows of lines) and baste the graph paper strip on the seam line. Speeds up your stitching and makes it more even.

Keep stitching,

  1. Do you stitch over the graph paper then remove like tear away?

  2. Yes I am stitching right over the paper. I am finding that if I wet the graph paper with a spray mist bottle, the paper comes off better without distorting your stitches.
