Have you ever heard of the term "Slow Stitching"? I'm not where it originated but Kathy in Ontario has been hosting a Linky Party called Slow Sunday Stitching since 2012 celebrated the art of handwork. I've always got a bit of embroidery on the go, sometimes cross-stitch and now some "big-stitch" hand quilting, so I'm finally going to join along.
I tend not to slow stitch on Sundays, though, as that is usually a day I can spend at the machine. Instead I stitch in the evenings when I'm watching TV, so I'll use the report to show what I worked on in the previous week. I get more done when I "have to report", but I know the only person I'm being accountable to is me!
Last night, I finished what stitching I could get done before assembling my new tote bag:
This is my own design, made with Moda's Honeycomb pre-cuts. I hope what I vision works out!
Linking up to Kathy's Slow Sunday Stitching! Come join the fun!
Welcome! We are glad to have you join in!
ReplyDeleteI love the red stitches you are making... they add lovely texture to your bag!
Thanks, Kathy! I've been following along for a while now, but this year I am serious about clearing out those UFOs.
DeleteWelcome! I love your big stitching on your hexies.
ReplyDeleteKaty's Slow Sunday Stitching is a great weekly goal. I do not make the weekly goal as often that I like, but it is fun to see what everyone is working on. I like your bright prints and red stitches.
ReplyDeleteNice to see you here. I'm intrigued about the bag you're going to make.
