2026 Slow Stitching Project - Page 2 - A2 Arrowhead Stitch

This is my second piece of K3N Cloth Tales Slow Stitch Project for 2026. I invisible basted my linen and cotton together that measure 7 in T x 8 in W.

I chose the Arrowhead Stitch for my second "A" page.  The two A pages will be stitched together to make the first page in my stitch book. The pin on the right hand side indicates the binding edge.

The bottom line was my first line of Arrowhead Stitch done with aqua floss. Then going up I made them very close together which is the Stacked Arrowhead Stitch. It could be used as a fill in stitch. I love the pyramid of the stitch that migrates into the center of the square. The only example I found in my stitch book - Elegant Stitches by Judith Baker Montano pg 25. I mixed 2 shades of the blue green thread.

I moved onto the top line of the square with making arrowheads then just a small cross stitch coming down the left hand side.

I cut 4 diamond shaped pieces of fabric and placed them in an Argyll pattern and appliqued them with running stitch then added the thin diamond with aqua thread. 

I chose a green thread for the Algerian Eye Stitch placed at the center bottom of the square.  The bit above that is supposed to be a leaf done with Stacked Arrowhead Stitch but it did not worked out so well.
