Slow Sunday Stitching

Welcome to the weekly hand stitching party!


Today is the winter solstice in my little corner of the world. This occasion marks the longest night of the year and the shortest day.

What better way to pass the time than to do some Slow Sunday Stitching?!? 


The Christmas Countdown project called "A Pretty Song" has kept me very busy, and this is where it is as of friday's stitching. It's a very intricate stitch on 25 count evenweave. RIght now it has about 10 birds fully or partially stitched in, and I love it!

I have been stitching a few other projects this month and you can catch up on that by watching any of the daily videos I have made for "Flossmas" in the month of December. 

At this time of year everyone asks "are you ready for Christmas"? My answer is "not at all"! But things get done, food gets bought and cooked, presents get purchased and wrapped, and some of my hand made gifts might actually get finished in time!  

How about you? Are you "ready"? Link up your blog post below and share your last weekend before Christmas stitching update.

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!

Another beautiful cross stitch picture! As for Christmas, I am almost ready. My daughter and Finn arrive today so we have some dog proofing to do and a few last minute groceries to buy. I’m just looking forward to some quiet family time. Merry Christmas to you and your family!

I'm definitely ready for the daylight hours to start getting longer. Bring it. Happy holidays, Kathy. Enjoy your beautiful stitching time.

I never feel quite ready for Christmas, and yet, everything does seem to get done! Your Christmas stitch is really sweet, Kathy - fun to see your progress. Have a wonderful Christmas!
