afternoon





What is about hand sewing that is so satisfying?

Doesn't seem to matter whether it's hand-piecing a block, catching a binding, some embroidery or a stitchery project.

I had a peaceful afternoon working on these diamonds and stars.

That cute little pincushion was a gift from Nora who used to blog on APQ back in the day and drops by now and then to see what we are sewing. Thanks Nora!

Hope there is time in your weekend for a little sewing.

Some folks are just too clever by half.

That said, I haven't been around much lately (okay four months since the last post) so perhaps this is old hat.

When I think of all the times I have dropped my roll of binding on the floor. 

You know it's been far too long since I spent time at the sewing machine. Something I should rectify soon.

I've really missed it.

Hope you are making better headway with your projects.
