Hand Stitching

A little hand stitching has been keeping me busy at the moment. I have a large quilt top finished, one cut and ready to be sewn after waiting patiently for a couple of particular fabrics.
Hand sewing on the lounge at night is sometimes all I can find the time to do......at least that's something!!
Here are a couple of hexagons for my soon to be God Daughter Lucia. I find these quite therapeutic, fiddly but fairly quick and instant results. The bit I hate the most is cutting that god awful double sided iron on stuff. Not sticking the iron to the iron board is a real challenge.




And here, a couple of embroidered heart motifs from Prints Charming. Very lolly like don't you think?

Bye baby BUNTING

Yesterday I started working on some bunting for Rosa's room. I love the rounded edges, Prints Charming style. Feels good to be using up some of my older fabrics and some new ones as well. I will hopefully post my finished product on Sunday. I am off to Bowral to visit some friends this weekend so hopefully my Sunday Stash will be something new.....shouldn't be too hard to shop in Bowral.

BABS IS FINISHED

After many a long night hand stitching on the lounge, I have finally finished my babushka quilt. Now I can pack it away and wait until Rosa gets a bed. I'm certainly in no rush!


The back

Can you spot the blonde haired, blue eyed babushka?

I'm so ready for my next project, it's amazing how sick of something you can get after months of looking at it.
