Slow Sunday Stitching

Happy Slow Sunday Stitching and Happy Mother's Day! While people are visiting and enjoying family time today, why not pick up your needle and thread, and make some progress on your projects.

I have a finish to share this week! This embroidery pattern is by Joy MacDonald and was started as a stitching meditation in January. It was a wonderful project to spend time with during turbulent world events. Stitching is my therapy!

I'm very happy with my hand quilting on this little treasure. And I'm delighted that all the blue marks were removed after washing. I was nervous about that, but I worried for no reason. 

Today I will be putting more stitches into my other hand quilting project - March into Spring

The bottom section is quilted and I love how the lines in the flying geese block look. It's coming along slowly but surely!

What will you be hand stitching today? We hope you will link up your blog or instagram post below.

The little meditation quilt is lovely. Your worry last week of too much quilting is groundless, it's perfect. Needlework is my therapy, too.

Hi Kathy, congrats on your finish! Your quilting is so lovely, on both pieces! I hope that you had a good day. I didn't do any stitching today but I did a little bit of fabric paint :-) My embroidered piece is coming along - it's almost time for its final post! Yeah!!! Have a great week.

I did slow stitching yesterday. I finished 2 things for another sewing kit (I'm making 6 sewing kits). Happy belated Mother's Day!
