I just adore a lazy Sunday morning drinking a pot of tea, listening to relaxing music and visiting my hand stitching friends to see what they are making. There are so many wonderful projects for my heart and soul to enjoy. I feel totally inspired after visiting the bloggers that take the time to stitch, to photograph and write about their projects, and then link up with us... many many thanks for sharing and enriching our lives!
There was one block that couldn't be centred properly. I have no explanation for what happened to the trimming on this one! It will be the label by default!
Meanwhile, because I can't be without an embroidery project, I have started a little Christmas gift stitching. This is another one of Gail Pan's wonderful designs. The free pattern can still be found here. Now it's your turn... what are you hand stitching today? Share your progress with us in a blog or instagram post below (and link to me at ssskat7).
There is a lot of lovely hand stitching in those 26 blocks. Your kinda Sunday morning sounds like a wonderful way to start the day.
ReplyDeleteGail Pan is another of those creative embroidery design geniuses! You've done a lovely job stitching them up! The off-center block was just in prep for your total number of blocks working into your five by five plan ... and one to grow on (label). Pretty clever! :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't it nice to get to a point where you say I have enough and now I can make a quilt. Kathy have you thought of tea dying the squares to make them appear similar in beige shading ....just a thought!
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks, I love seeing these together.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful set of hand stitched blocks!
ReplyDeleteThose are great little embroidery blocks - it will be fun to see what you do with them! Thanks for the link to the Gail Pan Christmas designs, too. That looks like a fun little project!
ReplyDeleteYour little Gail Pan embroideries are gorgeous. I will look forward to seeing how you use them. The mug rug pattern is cute. I've printed it off (I just can't help myself!) LOL.
ReplyDeleteI love your little stitcheries. Very tempting.
ReplyDeleteAll these Gail Pan stitcheries are so beautiful! I haven't been doing much hand stitching lately, although I did finish sewing down a binding this week.
ReplyDeleteGood for you Kathy for finishing last years Gail Pan - I never even got one completed! I joined Jacquelyn Steves for this year - and I really do like her embroidery! It is The Art of the Home Club - a little pricey, but she is the one that did the free BOM and I just love it! I am working on a Kathy Schmitz BOM from 2015 (I think) trying to finish it! I know that you will put together a pretty quilt!
ReplyDeleteOh those little embroideries are so darn cute! Busy week here so not much slow stitching was going on, but did get some fall chores finished.
ReplyDeleteYour embroideries are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI love the little stitcheries and I can't wait to see how you are going to develop the piece.
