April WIPocalypse Check In

Topic:  Which specialty stitches do you love doing on projects?  Which do you dread?
I love working on most specialty stitches.  Anything different to break up the monotony is fun!  I guess if I had to pick one, it would be the rice stitch.  I hate doing French knots, though.  I can never keep them consistent.  One knot will be huge, another will be tiny, and another will be the right size.  No matter how much I practice, I never get them looking similar much less the same.  I try to replace them with seed beads as often as I can get away with it.

This month I am working on Coke Santa by Stoney Creek, Noah's Journey by Dimensions, Snowdome Stocking by Donna Kooler, Fish City by Stoney Creek, and the Fairy of Destiny SAL by Passione Ricamo.
