I had a burst of energy this weekend and finished six squares.  I did the Hungarian Point squares on Friday and Saturday.  I really like this stitch.

My first block, following directions, makes me think of Renaissance details:

My second square was an attempt to show how the stitch works for a background.  I didn't want it to be just one colour so I added the cross.

My third square is my favorite for the sense of movement in the different coloured diagonals.  I don't know where I would use this many colours together... maybe in a purse flap?  Any suggestions?  As you can probably tell, this square was done vertically rather than horizontally.

I look forward to using this stitch as a background in a design someday.
