Welcome to the weekly hand stitching party! We invite you to settle in for some relaxation, visit our inspiring stitchers at the links below, and take some time to put a few stitches into one of your favourite projects.
It has been rainy, dark and dreary weather here this week, and that is perfect stitching weather. I have made progress on several projects including "Serenity" by Pansy Patch which I started in April. I enjoyed finishing the lady's wonderful skirt and don't have much more to go to finish this one.
My friend Debby started this pattern also and we compared our houses. Both of us have made mistakes on the house and yet... we are not changing anything. "Done is better than perfect" and so we carry on stitching!
I finished the stitching for "Determined Woman" by SewBe Stitchery and will finish it as a miniature wallhanging. Today I was auditioning fabrics (playing in the fabric stash) for the binding. I liked all the choices, so you will see next week which one I picked!
And because that stitchery will soon be finished, I am starting a new project called "Louisa's Wisdom" by the same pattern designer. Here is the thread audition process.Today I will be doing more quilt binding, and have recently finished a 2 more quilts that will need binding, so that is fun to look forward to!
What are you hand stitching today?

Your serenity project is just about done! Mistakes are just creative opportunities, as far as I am concerned. I’m hoping to finish my fall cross stitch soon. It’s time to work on something Christmassy
ReplyDeleteThe determined woman design is just great! I would enjoy stitching that, too!. Enjoy your binding stitching today - that always gives such a feeling of accomplishment!
ReplyDeleteI really like both of these projects. I look forward to seeing the wisdom one.
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy. I don't think the odd mistake matters, it just makes it individual!! Very nice projects btw!
