Autumn Pillow Project, aka CQtober2024 - Seam 20, Combination Cretan & Chevron

#CQtober2024 There are so many ways to do combination stitches, and I really love how this one turned out!  Rather than stitching one row of Cretan and another row of Chevron, I combined them into one.  It makes a fun and unique seam!  I started off stitching chevron on the base, but then as I moved to the second portion of the stitch, I changed to cretan!  To provide more interest, I staggered the heights of each stitch and added lazy daisies and French knots.   After looking at it for a while, I've decided it almost looks like a line of dancing flowers!  I hope you'll give this type of seam a try! The video is available here!  Happy Stitching!
