BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Embroidery What do you like to stitch?

Is there any subject that, when you see a chart, kit or design, you just HAVE to have it to stitch?

I will admit that anything with a Dragon as part of it becomes instantly a "want".

What about the rest of you?

Anything with an interesting looking new-to-me stitch is a must have for me.

So, you like learning new stitches, Julie?

I adore learning new stitches. Right now I'm doing a sampler where I'm working through the Coats and Clark 100 Embroidery Stitches Book (although I won't be doing the pulled thread or canvas work stitches because they aren't appropriate for the fabric I'm stitching on.) I'm making a heart-shaped sampler that I've been searching for various interesting stitches to add to it. And I'm doing the Take A Stitch Tuesday challenge.

I have pictures and comments of quite a bit of it on my blog - Orange Rug Yarn Musings

Cool! I find that I've been stitching so long, that the new stitches I have to learn are those that are expremely intricate (to say the least!). What's Take a Stitch Tuesday?
