TAST week 39 - Knotted buttonhole

 
Week 39 TAST challenge was Knotted buttonhole stitch. Simple one, still find difficult to make design hence a  freehand design " hedgehog in a  meadow". Stitches used are knotted buttonhole, buttonhole wheel and stem. As I am travalling I wont be able to do  next week's sampler but sure will catch up with week 41.
