Since I was setting up and learning how to use the new computer AND the mirror blog at Blogspot this weekend, I didn't have time to stitch much. However, I did finish stitching Fan's obi. At least I think I did. I don't have time this morning to check for missed stitches and it's too dark anyway. I like to hold a canvas up to the sun and see if I see holes where stitches were missed and the earliest I'll be able to do that is tonight. However, I might be able to tell from the scan I did.
Whether I finished or not, I wanted to point out that the bottom ribbon is alternated mosaic stitch and the other three parts of the obi are all diagonal stitches that alternate between being over one intersection and over two. Somehow the bottom ribbon looked good in a different stitch but I didn't have the right sized space to repeat it in any of the other sections.
So you don't have to use the same stitch in similar areas on a canvas. Just see what looks "right" to you. If it looks right, it probably is.
As a reminder, the main blog is at http://blog.360.yahoo.com/chillyhollow
