At this point, switch to a tapestry needle. The blunt tip of the tapestry needle works better with the lacing stitches, because it won’t catch on the foundation stitches. This happens a lot. This doesn’t mean they’re unhappy or not enjoying their living quarters, sometimes they are just curious as to what’s on the other side of their fence. Pass underneath the corners of the foundation stitches that hold the petal in shape. In the pattern, you can see where these corners are, because the petal element just touches them in the pattern. Your work will look much better if all your uppermost stitches on each double cross stitch and cross stitch is oriented in the same direction. So, for this piece, all my uppermost stitches on the double cross stitch are horizontal.

The reason is simple: we can generally execute pretty smooth marks now, by simply changing the way in which we approach the task. If we draw as confidently as we can, without concern for where we want the line to fall, our marks will always come out smoothly - just not accurately. To prepare to lay an egg, hens will often scratch around in the nest boxes of the coop. During the laying process, some of the hens will get up multiple times to scratch the bedding. Heading up the hypotenuse of the triangle, I’m crossing the half cross stitches that were left behind on the second journey above, and working the upright cross stitch over them, all in the same pass.

Here, you can see that the two perpendicular sides of the triangle are complete cross stitches, made on the return journey, while the hypotenuse is crossed on every other stitch. If you’ve witnessed it yourself, you’ll know how excited they get when they find a nice juicy grub, spider, or some other little creature. The cookie is set by rlcdn.com.

Scratching the ground is a social behaviour

Bring the needle to the front just to the side of the corner of the yellow foundation stitch where the inside tip of the petal should be.

The birds do this so that the nesting material is at a convenient height for them, and so that their eggs (and any other eggs in the nest box) will be in a position for incubation directly beneath their bodies. Even if they have no intention of caring for the eggs after they are laid, this behavior persists. When the Low Carb/Keto revolution happened, people discovered that, when ground up, Pork Rind/Crunch make the most magical stand-in for breadcrumbs.

Then, I worked the yellow foundation stitches that form the centers of the flowers. These are worked in double cross stitch, too. Working the Lacing Stitches Smooth flow is something we achieve by the approach we employ. Accuracy on the other hand is something that will improve with practice. Nail down your confident stroke now, from your shoulder, and as you practice it, your accuracy will catch up as well.When dealing with a smoother wave, it's often better to start with a smooth line, and then build individual "bumps" onto it. We'll use this quite a bit in Lesson 3, when we draw the wavy edge detail on leaves. I hope you find this tutorial useful and that you have the opportunity to enjoy a little light hearted stitching on gingham sometime soon!

Beginners often prioritize accuracy first, thinking that it's more important that their lines reach their intended points - but this is incorrect. The most important thing you need to focus on first is keeping your marks smooth and consistent. The purpose of this behavior is to get the nesting material in a position that’s comfortable to them and that will also keep their eggs (and any others’ eggs sitting in the nest box) beneath their bodies in the ideal position for incubation.They exhibit this behavior while laying eggs even if they have no intention of incubating the eggs.

Scratching out a comfortable nest

If they’re digging up plants you care about or making a mess around the perimeter of their pen, then that’s a little different. They also tend to scratch around in the coop nest boxes before laying an egg. Some of them will get up several times during the laying process to scratch the bedding around some more.
