Autumn Pillow Project aka CQtober 2024 - Seam 19, Buttonhole Fans

#CQtober2024 

Buttonhole stitch fans have been a nemesis of mine for a long time.  But I've been practicing, and all that practice finally paid off!  I'm really happy with how these turned out! 

The trick for me was to start them with a nearly straight buttonhole stitch art the beginning rather than using a lazy daisy to start.  

The effect was to make the base (or top in this orientation) nice and flat!  

To join, I slipped the needle and thread under the last stitch of the previous fan.  I'm so happy with how they turned out! 

Happy stitching!
