Welcome to the weekly hand stitching party where we celebrate and enjoy a wide variety of stitching options! It is a hot mid summer weekend here, so I'll be staying indoors by the fan and stitching with a minimum of movements!
Yesterday I started the August Fast Frisian stitch along hosted by Jacob at Modern Folk Embroidery. This is a traditional sampler and we will be stitching about 140 stitches every day this month to finish it by the end of August.
This is a new colour palette for me to enjoy stitching with, and I look forward to working on this for the month ahead. It's interesting that the colours kind of look Christmasy, but somehow not?!? This was the day 1 stitching in the bottom left corner of the design.
Also yesterday I posted a summary video on my Youtube channel to share the projects I worked on in July. You can view that video here.
It has been a very busy summer here so far and I'm looking forward to a quieter month ahead.
What are you stitching on this week? I hope you will have time to enjoy your hand stitching today!
