Slow Sunday Stitching

Welcome to the weekly hand stitching party! Last week I had time to visit all the links and enjoyed seeing your projects that you are working on including hand binding, hand piecing, hexies, crochet, embroidery, beading, applique, hand quilting and knitting.  Thank you for sharing your beautiful work with us!

Last week I had the pleasure of slow stitching by the water, which is my most favourite peaceful place to stitch. I quilted 2 blocks from my Life is Beautiful project. The first block I finished is one of the alternate bullseye blocks. 




The second is one of the embroidered blocks. This cat block says "life is what you make it to be".  Well that day, while stitching by the river with friends, it was easy to make life seem fabulous! I could be with friends and enjoy some outdoor stitching... what more could a person ask for?!?

Today I will be hand quilting another block for this project. What are you hand stitching today? We would love to see what you are working on, so we hope you will link up your blog post below and share your project with us.

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!

I missed slow stitching Sunday. My weekend days were mixed up and all day I thought is was Saturday!! I was knitting but ended up ripping it out because of a counting error...so guess I will join in next week. Should have some things to show.
