All the samples were worked with the same black sewing thread in the bobbin and on the top spool. Only the stitch length and width vary
Sheet 1 - samples worked in ordinary stitchery
Sheet 2 - samples worked in ordinary stitchery
Sheet 3 - samples worked in ordinary stitchery
Sheet 4 - samples worked in ordinary stitchery
Sheet 5 - sample I - worked in ordinary stitchery
sample J worked in whip stitch
Sheet 6 - samples worked in whip stitch
Sheet 7 - samples worked in whip stitch
Sheet 8 - samples worked in cable stitch
Sheet 9 - samples worked in cable stitch
Trial sample with different yarns in the bobbin, the thickest being the "coton pour tapisserie". Unfortunately my machine didn't accept thicker thread very well and I didn't want to put too much strain on it as I already had it repaired because of tension problems (getting a second bobbin case here in Luxembourg seems to be a problem).
