Slow Sunday Stitching

Welcome to the weekly hand stitching party!
Can you believe this is the last link up for February? Where did this month go?!?
Even though it was a short month that went by so quickly, I did accomplish quite a bit of hand stitching this month. In fact over the course of the past week I hand stitched 473 inches of binding on 3 different quilts (Scrappy Strings, Save the Bees, and Exploding block) and I hand pieced the 4th block for the hand piecing quilt along. That must be a record for me!
Granddog Max loves to snuggle under any quilt I am working on, which is hard to do when it's a small table runner and hardly big enough to get himself under. There wasn't room for him and his toy under the quilt, so his husky dog toy had to sit beside him... so cute!
Today I'll be working on some applique for block #40 of my Blockheads project from last year. It's the last block for that quilt (see the others here) and then I can sew that quilt top together.
What are you hand stitching today? 
Please link up your blog post or instagram photo below so we can see what your hands are creating today.

This was a great week for finishes for you. Does that mean it is time to start a new project???? grand dog Max is a loyal quilting companion! He is definitely an honorary Slow Sunday Stitcher!

I will be quilting on the quilt under the one in the thumbnail photo but I finished Good Fortune and laid it over the quilting frame to get a photo and I don't have a good photo on today's post of the one I am quilting but most of you have seen it - I will be quilting and crocheting! You got a lot of binding done must have felt good!!

You've been busy! Right you are the month has flown by, but what a cold, ugly, snowy month it's been. I'll be glad to see it go.
