I will be sitting by the water again today and will be putting more stitches in my reproduction bow tie quilt. It is the perfect sized project to take anywhere. It covers my lap and keeps me warm, but isn't so big that it drags on the ground.
The September weather here has been glorious with warm temperatures and sunny blue skies most days. Last week I was treated to forest bathing, and this week I will be enjoying my Sunday stitching by the water!
I spread the quilt out on my lawn chair so you can you see my stitching progress. I started in the spot where the blocks form a circle and have been stitching in concentric rows out from there. Slow and steady stitching finishes a quilt eventually!
What are you working on today? Link up your hand stitching project below and share your progress.

ReplyDeleteKathy, your bow tie quilt is gorgeous! What a joy it must be to work on it, especially given the setting of the water!! :)

ReplyDeleteNo slow stitching for me today (hand cranks don't count). Enjoy the water. We're expecting rain (not good when you are hauling machines).
