Here is my take on the Fly Stitch - nothing fancy (It's been a LONG time since I did hand embroidery of any note and I need to get the technique down before trying - probably unsuccessfully - to get fancy with it!):
The fabric is a silkweaver 28-ct Jobelan called "Dreamin" and the floss used so far is Gentle Arts Sampler threads: "Green Apple" for the fly stitches and "Bretheren Blue" for the date (The date is from a Kincavel Crosses band sampler.). Overall, it will be 6 inches wide and I broke down and "gridded" it so I can be sure I'm consistent!
