I still need a couple of chicken dishtowels to go with the chicken hotpads I made a few weeks ago.
I'm so tired after having the grandkids here yesterday that I think some slow stitching is about all I'll finish today. We made Christmas cookies, they painted ornaments and decorated my tree with all the handmade ornaments of years past. If I don't finish these towels today I'll probably take them with me to work to stitch on during my lunch break.
I finished hand quilting in the ditch around windows and between buildings on my cat house quilt. This is a Christmas gift so I need to get it finished but I have until Christmas morning to finish so what's the hurry?
I've done the embroidery for the neon signs that will get appliqued to the buildings. Then I need to machine quilt the sky with some stars, add the binding and I'll have a finish.
I need to get another quilt ready for hand quilting. Hmmmm, which will it be?
Slow Sunday Stitching?
After a busy day with family I think there is nothing better than sitting down and relaxing with a hand stitching project. Enjoy your day!
