Take a Stitch Tuesday #13 - Satin Stitch

This week was the satin stitch for Take a Stitch Tuesday. 

I love satin stitch. I don't think I have completely mastered it but I really enjoy it. 

First up I drew a rectangle and filled it it in a reddish color floss. Definitely not my finest satin stitch but good enough.

Then I drew a circle and filled it with black floss.

I think the most I have ever used the satin stitch was for my first Erro embroidery piece below.

I filled the lips, finger nails, and side design with satin stitch.
