view out my front window |
We have been doing renovations and another room is complete. So now I have some time to sew until my painting skills are required again.
I got new sub-floor in my basement sewing room so some cleaning and purging went on. That kept me busy all last week. I also found a few projects that were set aside and forgotten. I took one of those out and got to finishing it. I completed it in the "quilt as you go" method. As I was hand stitching the sashing last night....I remembered why I am not so fond of this method. Good thing it is only a small quilt. I am gifting it so no pics.So when I am done posting this, I will be making binding for it and that will be my slow stitching for today. Although not a football fan, I will be checking in with Kathy and her friends to see what they are up to today on Super bowl Sunday!!!
It is the time of year that I usually have a quilt on the frame for hand quilting. I am indeed getting the itch but with renos on-going not sure it is the right time. Maybe I can set one up to do in a hoop...yes maybe that is what I will do. Until then, I am sure I can find more projects to get to the next stage of completion.
Happy stitching on the gift! I also have snow outside my window now, but it probably won't be lying, because it comes rain and milder weather next week. :-)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your binding today! You definitely would enjoy a hand quilting project in the hoop!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy you stitching, wow that's is some view out your window.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your stitching. That is a whole lot of snow. We haven't had any since November and that was gone in a day.
ReplyDeleteSounds like it is all happening up there. You have lots of hand stitching to keep you busy. Love the pretty photo of your wintry wonderland even though I am a Spring/Summer loving kinda gal. I suppose the good thing about renovations is you find a lot of things you had forgotten about.
ReplyDeleteDid you make the Super Bowl mystery?
ReplyDeleteNo I didn't. I am trying to not start anything new...it is hard to do!
