This design is the third in a series called Parade
of Pattern which features projects that explore common stitches
in an uncommon way. In this geometric arrangement, a variation
of the Hungarian stitch called Flip-flop Diagonal Hungarian
is used to create a main outline that forms a total design.
The mirrored units resemble an undulating rickrack edge that
is softer then a straight edge, and one section uses an offset
placement to produce a diamond shape. Finished Design Size:
