wrapped bars update

I did a whole sample with my new straight bar method (see previous post), and while I like it, I don’t like it as much as I expected to.

Sure, the bars look lovely and straight and perfect, but they seem to have lost a lot of their charm.

The style of embroidery that I am working is an old traditional style, and the zig-zag type bars are the way it was always done. And I have decided that they have a lot more charm.
