Oblique Obsession
It is clear my current obsession is oblique stitches. Today's stitch combines two small space stitches to create a great small and, not shockingly, oblique small stitch.

The stitched sample uses two shades of Pepper Pot Silk on 13 mesh, illustrating what an aodrable stitch this could be for small greenery. It would make a lovely addition to furniture, such as a blanket, pillow, or rug. I love the idea of it as a coat on a small coat, using a matte thread for the over four stitch and a metallic for the over two stitch.
