satin stitch practice

I reorganized my craft room today and came across an embroidery practice swatch I did a while back. It's with variegated thread, though you can't really tell.

Seems like it should be good for something....

Um, wow! I bow down before your embroidery prowess! Any tips for someone who is embroidery-impaired?!?

lovely stitching. maybe a patch for a bag, toiletries pouch, or apron? or a tiny wall hanging?

It would be great for any zakka pattern that uses bits and pieces!

I find the satin stitch to be somewhat frustrating - looks like you've perfected it (it looks to me like that's what you used on the letters). Very nice work!
