TAST 2012 Week 29 Basque Stitch

It's funny how sometimes you just need to start something, and then you really enjoy what you are doing.  That was the case with the basque stitch.  I didn't really feel like doing it, but once I started I really enjoyed myself.  As you can see I really like to do floral motifs.  I used cotton perle mostly, but also some silk ribbon (2mm), wool, cotton floss, and other thread.
I also thought of making something that had to do with gears but decided to do flowers instead.
