Product Information

Bring your needle up slightly under and next to one corner of the foundation stitch on any corner of the white square. I’m referring to Lewis F.’s portrayal of William Shakespeare. Bostelmann employs a Shakespearean style to demonstrate that Roger Manners, Fifth Earl of Rutland (1576-1612) wrote all of Shakespeare’s plays in his dramatic play Roger of Rutland: A Drama in Four Acts. The Stratford swindle must be stopped, according to Bostelmann in the 1911 second edition (which has five acts). The true story is that the Earl author uses a “dummy and strawman for Stratford-on-Avon’s William Shaxper. Once all the flower and leaf stitches are finished, move on to the white lacing stitches in the adjacent sections.

Beginners often prioritize accuracy first, thinking that it's more important that their lines reach their intended points - but this is incorrect.

When dealing with a smoother wave, it's often better to start with a smooth line, and then build individual "bumps" onto it. We'll use this quite a bit in Lesson 3, when we draw the wavy edge detail on leaves. They’re most likely scratching for little insects, bugs, and other morsels. Or, they’re creating a dust bath, a nest, and the other things I explained above.

They also tend to scratch around in the coop nest boxes before laying an egg. Some of them will get up several times during the laying process to scratch the bedding around some more. If they’re digging up plants you care about or making a mess around the perimeter of their pen, then that’s a little different.

Now it’s time to turn the stitches into double cross stitches, by crossing over them with an upright cross stitch. The purpose of this behavior is to get the nesting material in a position that’s comfortable to them and that will also keep their eggs (and any others’ eggs sitting in the nest box) beneath their bodies in the ideal position for incubation.They exhibit this behavior while laying eggs even if they have no intention of incubating the eggs.

If you pay close attention, you’ll likely notice some little interactions that show you they’re paying attention to one another. The reason is simple: we can generally execute pretty smooth marks now, by simply changing the way in which we approach the task. If we draw as confidently as we can, without concern for where we want the line to fall, our marks will always come out smoothly - just not accurately.

Why Your Chickens Do What They Do

All work for the lesson must be completed - that means all exercises in the lesson, not just those in a given section I work with a 4″ embroidery hoop on the 1/8″ gingham, and I always work as much of the design as will fit in the hoop before I move the hoop. So I work all the foundation stitches and all the lacing stitches that fit inside the hoop area, before moving the hoop to work another area. Similarly, hens that have been rescued from battery cages are known to scratch the ground as one of their first acts of freedom.

Pass the needle and thread under the three anchor stitch corners that will hold the square shape in place, and then take the needle down into the fabric underneath the first anchor stitch, where you first emerged to make the square.With the threads I’ve been using on the designs I’ve been showing you, I find a #7 or #8 crewel needle works well for the foundation stitches, and a #26 tapestry needle works fine for the lacing stitches. Then, I moved on to the foundation stitches for the sections highlighted above, because that’s about all that would fit in my hoop. Then, I worked the yellow foundation stitches that form the centers of the flowers. These are worked in double cross stitch, too. Working the Lacing Stitches After finishing this little outlined area, I had just enough thread left (good planning!) to work the foundation cross stitches in the middle of this area. By the time I reach the last stitch (right above the first stitch on the left side of the triangle), all my stitches are now double cross stitches, and the uppermost stitch on each double cross stitch has the same horizontal orientation.
