Patra's Place will be mostly about my linen collection, but also about my SINS (Stuff I'll Never Stitch), UFOs (UnFinished Objects) and projects that I am currently working on. Since I created this first blog, I have diversified somewhat! You can see the list of my other blogs, and my favourite websites and blogs by other people, on the sidebar.

The orange 4 sided stitches and the feeler like stitches done in black seem to be characteristics of Lagartera. They appear in a couple of lagartera Charts I own. The satin stitches in your sample are square shaped while mine are diamond shaped with a tiny space in the center. My charts are from a needlework book published in India by Coats in 1973. Coats India is a subsidiary of Coats U.K.
Hi Bhavani,
Thank you very much for your comments; it is very helpful to read this, as I really have no idea about the technique, apart from what I read on SharonB's blog.
What a beautiful design!
