I've been stitching multiple vertical, horizontal, and diagonal straight lines through the 9 patches. Then I decided to add some hand-quilting to the hearts, so I'll be working on that today.
I love this sweet fabric I found for the backing and binding!
Also this week, I've been stitching along with lots of other folks in the Crabapple Hill embroidery month stitch-along, and enjoying it very much! I've learned some new stitches - some of which I definitely need more practice on!
Sharing at Quilting is more fun than Housework for Oh Scrap! and
at Kathy's Quilts for Slow Sunday Stitching.
Both of your projects are coming along so nicely... the table runner so bright and cheerful and the embroidery looks so delicate.
