Here is my first exploration with fly stitch.
Different weights of thread on Aida.
And below is my sample of flystitch, including using small and large stitches as 'point' to create movement and focus within the design. Not very pretty, but I think it is quite lively.
After working this, I think I can incorporate a bit of densely worked, over embellished fly stitch in my long sampler after all.

I love this little piece! Not only is it pleasing to look at, but it also really demonstrates the versatility of the fly stitch to show vegetation and movement.
All of these samplers are way cool...very inspiring.
