Going in Circles
Circles are the most difficult pattern (for me) to replicate. Most traditional circle stitches are never perfect circles. The yet to be named stitch remains a current favorite. Today's stitch is a very close second.

The stitched sample is a sky stitched with Rainbow Gallery's Glisten from a Scott Church Christmas piece. It's sweet, simple, and allows other elements of the piece to stand out. A variation I would like to try (but have not yet) is to add a single bead in the center of the small diamond in between the circles.
