Here is my take on the Take a Stitch Tuesday challenge. For week 6 the stitch is the Algerian eye stitch, similar to an eyelet stitch. I am still working in an ATC format with felt as the base, but this time I added some painted cheesecloth before stitching. I used a pearl crown rayon embroidery thread.

Oooohhhh aaaaaahhhhh! The background color is beautiful and the rainbow thread really makes it all pop.
Great texture to this with the cheesecloth.
I see you've been felting too!
Fun fun!
Love the look of the background and you've made this stitch look really pretty, especially the one in the centre.
Micki that is sooooo beautiful and you will have a wonderful collection when you finish.I love pearl crown rayon but I only have a green and a yellow I didn't know it came as a varigated.
Wonderful texture to the background, the thread colours really liven up the stitches
Great colours, and I love what you did with the cheesecloth. Looks almost like a delicate little spiderweb.
Love this! The colors, the composition of the stitches - wonderful!
The cheesecloth adds a great extra layer of interest. Almost looks like critters making themself a web :)
Love the background, and the thread is gorgeous.
Nice work Micki!
Cool! I like it!
Very pretty! The texture the cheesecloth adds is wonderful.
Oh - wow! It's amazing how the addition of a little cheesecloth can add so much. Very nice Micki!
very very great work Micki
What a wonderful piece of art Micki, the background is so textured and the stitching a lovely contrast.
Micki, this one is wonderful. I love it.
Beautiful Micki! I love how you stretched the cheesecloth - it looks like freeform stitching.
That great cheesecloth texture is an idea I intend to borrow. Your rainbow Algerian Eye is great!
