NEW STITCH MONDAY – INTERLOCKING CROSSES WITH BEADS

I love looking through all my books looking for new stitches to use.  It’s amazing how many different ways you can do a similar stitch.  Interlocking Crosses can also be called Hourglass Cross.  This is a perfect stitch when you are stitching a dress or some other type of fabric that you would like to dress up.  For those that don’t like to bead you can replace it with a corresponding metallic thread or a thread that is a shade darker or lighter than the one you are using for the crosses.
