Welcome to Slow Stitching Sunday where we make time to slow down our lives, to breathe deeply, to pick up a needle and thread, and take some slow stitches.
This weekend I have been attending the Jingle Ball which is an online cross stitch event. My friend Debby and I rented a little Air B'n B in the middle of nowhere which is a renovated 150 year old church with so much character!We invited our friend Barb to join us for a little holiday, and she is a long time hand stitcher.
We have had long stitching sessions and started some new projects. This one is a free stitchalong that I started. The pattern is from Anna Gutova at Artmishka Cross Stitch. My friends think it is a radish. It is not! I think it will become a Christmas ornament on some evergreen boughs.
I have been posting a video every day in December on Kathy's Quilts and Stitching showing my 5 advent calendar projects that I am opening every day before Christmas. One of the projects is the Evertote, Roxy Floss Co, and Modern Folk Embroidery holiday countdown collaboration called "A Pretty Song". This photo shows the border and I am making slow progress. You can hear more details on my flosstube if you are interested.
I hope you will link up your blog post below so we can see what you are hand stitching this week!
