Welcome to the weekly hand stitching party! We hope you will pick up a needle and some threads, and join us as we relax and make some progress on our hand stitched treasures.I have been binge watching Longmire on Netflix while stitching this week. I enjoy stories about ordinary people just trying to survive and do the right thing in difficult circumstances.

| Longmire quilt season 5 episode 7 |
Okay... back to my stitching...
I have been working on a tea towel in my Stitcher's Revolution series.
I am using 3 strands of embroidery floss for these towels designs. Fewer strands don't show up as well, and any more strands can easily become a tangled mess.
What are you hand stitching today?
Share your project with us below and let us cheer you on!
You are right the colours and pattern are great, right up my street! The stitching is coming along nicely.
ReplyDeleteYes, an eye-catching quilt. I also enjoy similar shows.
ReplyDeletegreat eye for that wonderful quilt.
ReplyDeleteI watched all of that show I really liked it - I don't remember the quilt!! I'm sure I saw it though, some of the shows have such pretty quilts on the beds
ReplyDeleteThat TV quilt is beautiful. I too sometimes get distracted by the quilts, crocheted and knitted items on the television. Your tea towel is looking great.
ReplyDeleteWe enjoyed Longmire. It's one of those that makes you sad when you've finished watching all the episodes.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great quilt. We loved that show. I've done that design twice now, and I so love those transfers. Thanks for the recommendation!
ReplyDeleteI forgot all about that show. I need to find that again. Recently I watched some Little House on the Prairie and there's a quilt that shows up .... and I did the same thing, had to rewind!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed Longmire too, up to the last few episodes when it just gets stupid. I do the same thing when I see an interesting quilt on a TV show, LOL, and have to go back and catch up on the story. I finished up some hand work on my Vintage Christmas blocks and will show those soon and link up.
ReplyDeleteYes, a lovely quilt! We just watched the most recent (also to be the last) season of Longmire. Another lovely, simple, black and red quilt that shows up in the last two shows. Watch for it!:)
ReplyDeleteWe'll miss Longmire.
I have netflix and have been watching "Heartland" great show...as you said ordinary people going through life!oh and lots of horses.It is based in Canada but is filmed very well for a CBC production!
ReplyDeleteI loved Walt! A great show and I almost said something else before realizing I might spoil the ending! I missed that quilt maybe because I was probably stitching at the time. It is a beauty and would totally coordinate with my wooden house. Thanks for sharing, Kathy.
ReplyDeleteOh that is a gorgeous quilt in the show! I would have been distracted with it also. I may not have noticed the diagonal border. Perfect for a man's quilt in a cabin. I LOVE plaids!
ReplyDeleteIt was a beautiful quilt from the tv series. I also like the tea towels you embroider! :-)
ReplyDeleteKathy, how long have you been doing "Slow Stitching Sunday"? I have enjoyed persusing the links for a long time. Such a good idea.
ReplyDeleteAny time I see a quilt in a movie or tv series I take a good look too! We love Longmire and have watched it through many times. I really like how they point out the injustices to many different peoples who live in these United States, showing their struggles and frustrations with how unequal we treat others even here, where we are supposed to be equals... One particular quilt that I love is in The Tall Men in possession of the young lady. Hand applique large baskets. It is hard to get a good look at it in the movie, as a whole. Many movies like old westerns, have quilts from the completely wrong era.
