Slow Sunday Stitching...

 During the week, I finished up the Kathy Schmitz butterfly embroidery that I showed last week.  I like how this turned out - now I have to decide how to finish it up.


I traced another design to work on after the butterfly was finished, but it turns out I have other plans for my slow stitching time for today and probably tomorrow, too.   

Just this afternoon (Saturday), I finished the quilting on PopStar and got the binding attached to the front.  So I'll be slow stitching this dark blue binding that matches the large main star in the design today!

That means a finish is on the horizon!

Such a lovely finish, Diann. Pretty little butterfly and the smiling sun is sweet. Enjoy stitching the binding.

Switching plans to hand stitch a binding is always a plus! Great job. Will the butterfly end up as a pillow?

Debra said...

Pretty butterfly. Yay for binding!

That is a sweet butterfly stitch. Turning a stitch into a finished object is a totally different category of crafting :)
Love the dark blue of the binding.
