TAST 2012 Week 28 Up and Down Buttonhole Stitch

I finished my sample of Up and Down Buttonhole Stitch earlier than usual.  It is a nice looking stitch--but a bit confusing for me--especially the one variation I did where the 2 legs are up and then down.  I need to look at some other stitch dictionaries for instructions for that variation.

I used quite a variety of threads: wool, cotton, silk, and rayon.  I am pleased how it turned out.

    You've done an excellent job with this stitch! Really like the colour and all the different threads you used. I haven't got mine done yet but hope to soon.
