Mary Poppins Stitch - SATS 1/25

Named after the sweetest shop dog, the Mary Poppins stitch, is fun and whimsical and provides a perfect amount of flair, just like Mary Poppins herself! This is an open stitch that is ideal for adding texture to any project. The series of diagonal stitches are shown here in 4 different colors however, it is stitcher's choice the amount of colors used. This stitch is also perfect for stitching snow!

Heidi's tip: don't be afraid to mix different types of thread here! A ribbon such as neon rays or straw silk would be great for the long diamond stitches and a touch of sparkle such as Silk Lame would look great for the small cross stitches at the diamond points.
