Slow Stitching this week

Last week I shared that I had started a new hand-pieced project, Scrappy Trips blocks in the Rainbow Scrap Challenge color of the month.   So now there are two pink blocks!



Then I went back to working on the Gail Pan embroidery design I had started.  That's what I'll be working on today for my slow stitching time.  Just a little bit left to do! 




For a New Year's present for myself I bought a membership for Kathy Schmitz's One Stitch at a Time Club.  It will be fun to have a new little design to work on each month!


As a thank you for joining, she sent me this design called "Spring Sing."  At our house, the birds are here year round, so I will probably trace this one and get it ready to stitch next.

  2. Pretty pinks! I've been curious about the One Stitch at a Time Club and had looked into it a while ago (probably when she visited our guild). Love her designs.

  11. Your hand-sewn Scrappy Trips blocks are perfect. What a nice reward to yourself for getting through what was a very trying year for you. May 2021 be brighter, happier and healthier for everyone.

  16. Gail Pan designs are nice, but I havent yet come across the other designer. But the bird design looks very pretty.
    Good on you for hand piecing, not quite my thing, however.
