Slow Sunday

Dinos for a little boy
It is not just a slow stitching Sunday but a very slow lazy Sunday at my house. We celebrated DH birthday last night with friends and it turned into a late night. But I did get some things done today. This baby quilt, for a friend's grandson has to be finished this week. No pressure. I am planning on machine quilting it...wish me luck. Machine quilting is not my favorite thing to do but I am just stippling and maybe some free hand bones in the borders.



On the slow stitching front with Kathy at Kathy's Quilt's, I plan to relax after supper and continue the work on that wedding quilt.Now that my garden is almost empty, I  must buckle down and get it finished or else Christmas sewing season will be here and nothing will be finished. Looks like the week ahead will be a hand quilting week!!

  1. Such a cute little dino quilt! I love it. I too hope to machine quilt a little this week if the machine will cooperate with the FMQ. Enjoy your hand stitching today.

  2. Love your dino quilt. So cute! I am not a machine quilter but every once in awhile I try. A large meander or straight lines, enjoy the hand quilting so much better. It is hard to get as much done, so maybe I should practice more!
